Follow the Leader

Have you ever attempted to follow a cat? Yesterday morning I tried that. One minute he raced ahead, the next he fell behind. He skittered across a log; he scurried up an apple tree. At times he rolled onto his back, begging to be pet; other times he zigzagged in front of my feet. Walking became a halting, hazardous affair. Thankfully, following Christ is nothing like following a cat. In the Bible we study how the Lord lived and what He taught. With purpose and patience He leads us on the narrow way; we know His voice, His ways, His Word. He shows us the way, and He never leads us astray.
