I may not see in front of me, But I can see for miles around when I look over my shoulder, and Lord, it`s clear. You`ve brought me here, So faithful every step of the way. What can I do but follow you, For You are the Way, the Truth, the Life, And You`ve promised never to leave me, My Savior, my friend, From beginning to end.

I Am Found In You by Steven Curtis Chapman
FOLLOW
By: Ron Edmondson Friday, March 06, 1998
It is the Lord your God you must follow, and Him you must revere. Keep His commands and obey Him; serve Him and hold fast to Him. Deut 13:4 NIV

This verse is exactly what I am trying to teach my kids....and me!

We spend half our time in life, it sometimes seems, trying to decide who and what we should be. Which decision is best? Should I vote Democrat or Republican? Should I go to a state school or a private university? Should I be Baptist or Nazarene? Should I give to United Way or to Big Brothers and Big Sisters? Should I go to that movie or not?

Decisions? Who's right? Who's wrong? Who should I follow? Who can I look up to? Who is telling me the truth? Can I trust this employer?

S T O P ! ! !

Stop the chase! God has given us the answer! Here it is: FOLLOW HIM!

If we will follow God and God alone; if we will put Him first; revering Him as all sufficient in our lives....it is then that we will begin to find direction in our lives. If we will keep His commands and obey Him; serving Him faithfully; holding to the truth of His word....then we will find real peace in our lives.

God's will for us is right, good and pure! In Him we will find success in life. As we follow God; seeking Him with all our heart; we will begin to find the true meaning to the chaos in which we live. Decisions will become easier once we solicit answers from the Great I AM!

God is waiting to be our guide! Will you join me in a game of "follow the leader"?
