The next day Jesus decided to go to Galilee. He found Philip and said to him, “Follow me.”

John 1:43

Recently, I was going to visit someone in one of our larger hospitals here in North Carolina. The person at the desk gave me directions to the person’s room which had me going from one building to another. There was a man who overheard the person giving me directions and said to me, “I’m going to that building. Why don’t you come with me.” As I went with him, I realized that I would have gotten lost had I not followed him. That experience reminded me of how important it is for us to follow the right person in our lives. That person is Jesus. He promises to lead us in the right direction. He promises never to leave us, and He promises the best for us. Follow Him and find meaning and purpose in your life.

Lord, thank You for Your promises to me. Help me follow You as I live my life. In Jesus name. Amen.

Reflect: Who are you following each day? Who is following your example?
