Follow The Leader
My children and their friends occasionally decide it is time to play follow the leader. The leader will go along just having fun for awhile but then eventually one of them will start trying to make it more and more difficult for those who are following to follow by jumping on one foot on a balancing beam or crawling under something on her belly. It is usually one of the older ones that makes it more difficult for the younger ones.
I was reading in Isaiah 55 this morning and reflecting on how God declares that His ways are higher than mine and His thoughts are higher also. Why both? It got me thinking about some stuff that is said in the NT about our thoughts and actions and how they are connected. Our actions follow our thoughts. We are told to take every though captive and make it obedient to scripture. How will this effect the way we live?
Where our thoughts lead our actions will follow. Take time to play Follow the Leader with some kids today and remember that God's thoughts and ways are not ours. He is God.
