Walk the Talk

Being a follower in a true sense of the word

A few weeks ago I wrote about a tree that is recognized by its fruit. We can call ourselves Christians, but would people recognize us as such without that label? In 1 John 2:6 we can read the following,
Whoever claims to live in Him must walk as Jesus did.
It means we have to follow in His footsteps, live like He did, do what He did.
The Bible tells us a lot about the way Jesus lived. It tells us about His family, friends and disciples. It tells us about his childhood and ministry. It tells us about His teachings, His toughts and His feelings. I would like to encourage you, read! Read about Him and learn from Him. Study His life and copy it. One of my favorite movies on DVD about Jesus is The Gospel Of John. Powerful, powerful movie! Live like He did, do what He did. Sometimes that may feel like we're jumping into the deep, but that is also the place where we will get our biggest catch!
