Ephesians 5:1 (NKJV) 1 Therefore be imitators of God as dear children.
Have we ever watched our children as they grew up, or even now as they are growing up, and sometimes catch them acting the same way we do in certain situations?
They may even have our same mannerisms. That’s right, they act like our little minis.
Why? Because they are imitating what they see us do. Sometimes it’s a good thing. We get all excited and feeling good on the inside. And we think “Aw, look at little Johnny. He’s just like me”.
Then other times, it’s not so good when they are acting the way we do. They may even get in trouble for doing what they are doing, even though we were the ones that taught them to do it that way.
Being God’s children, we should all strive to act like Him. We don’t have to worry when we imitate Him. Everything He does is good, just and RIGHTEOUS!
We can go all out and act like our Heavenly Daddy and it will just trickle down into our children’s lives as well.
Following our earthly fathers may get us into some trouble. Be safe, be sure and imitate the One who is perfect in all He does; Our Heavenly Father!
