My dog, Roxie, has a cute habit of following me around in my house. She lays at my feet wherever I stop. In the bathroom, under my computer desk, on the couch: everywhere. I stopped to think about why she does this, and it occurred to me that I am someone she feels safe with. She follows me around because I take care of her, and she is never alone when with me.
Isn't it wonderful that God works the same way? We can follow Him every day because we know we can rely on Him to take care of us and never leave us alone. What an awesome comfort! It is a great time to be a follower, if God is the leader.
Joshua 1:9 says, "Have I not commanded thee? Be strong and of good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with the whithersoever thou goest."
God, thank you for always being there for us. It is great to share the joy we experience with you, and lean on you for support. Help us follow you always, as we know where you are is always a safe place. Thank you father for all of your blessings. Amen.
