So keep in mind that the LORD has been correcting you, just as parents correct their children.
JOHN 13:15 (CEV)
I have set the example, and you should do for each other exactly what I have done for you.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
Live well by following the pattern that God had modeled for us.
PRAYER
Loving God, you have been parenting us through your words and actions as none other can do. I admit that I don't pay as close attention as I should. I get distracted by every new and novel thing that comes my way. Actually, they just appear new and novel. I'm sure that to you they are old worn excuses for independence. Please keep your models fresh in front of me so that I'm not distracted from your pattern for my life. I'm going to going to live like Christ. Amen.
THE LORD’S PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name; your Kingdom come; your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.
