Can Others Follow My Example?

Scripture: 1 Corinthians 11:1 Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ.

Observation: I hope one day I may be able to say that to others, to follow my example. I do want to follow the example of Christ, but each day I fall short in my thoughts, word and actions. However I’m so much better than I use to be and if I continue to attempt to be more like my Lord and Savior I can be a man others can follow as I follow Christ.

Application: Continue to pray, read my Bible and other Christian books and serve. Serving was the example Jesus showed us while on this earth. To follow Jesus’ example is to do what He did, so if I don’t serve I’m not following my Lord.

Prayer: Dear Lord soften my heart and guide me each day to be more like you. Give me that servant’s heart, caring for the needs of others above my own. I freely give you this life as a living sacrifice, may it be holy and pleasing to you.
