Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children, and live in love, as Christ loved us (Ephesians 5)
Imitating those that we respect and value is something we learn from a young age. I know that I would wear the jerseys of my favorite players and parrot the things those who I admire would say.
As we grow we learn follow in the footsteps of those who we want to learn from so as to achieve our professional, personal, and spiritual hopes.
As people of faith, we are ever-engaged in a spiritual apprenticeship, learning from those who imitate God so as to become imitators of God ourselves.
Who are the "imitators of God" that you seek to imitate? Who might be looking to you as an "imitator of God" for their lives? Name them today and give thanks for them.
In the name of Jesus. Amen.
