Do kids play Follow the Leader anymore? I haven’t seen this game in a long while. It used to be fun following along, doing exactly what the person in front was doing. Of course I think it was more fun to lead since everyone would have to follow me.
Maybe that’s the problem with modern society. There are too many people who want to lead and not so many who want to follow. It’s kind of like the too-many-chefs-spoil-the-broth analogy. Too many leaders cause dysfunction and chaos since there’s no one around to get the work done.
As Christians we need to be followers of Christ. He is our Leader; our Savior. We do well when we follow Him exactly, showing love and kindness and mercy. We get into trouble when we refuse to copy His ways. We stumble (literally and figuratively), make bad decisions, and distance ourselves from the One True God when we put ourselves in the front.
Are you trying to be the Leader in your life? Step aside, step back, and let God take the lead.
