Whom are you following,are you following a proven leader,or some fancy title and position?Have you been swayed by the lust,will and desire of your flesh into choosing leadership.Is your walk to please God or those around you.Paul said "follow me as I follow Christ".Are you following Christ in your walk?
Following Christ is not something we do only once and then return to our former self directed ways.We must continually trust, believe and depend upon Him.He is a proven leader.As the children of Israel traveled throug the wilderness on their way to the promise land,they faced many difficult situations and frequently had their backs up against the wall.Sometimes their enemies were nations who wanted to destroy them or keep them from reaching their destination.But sometimes their enemies were the harsh conditions of the wilderness,the lack of food or water,or anxieties they had about the unknown.Their initial response when times were tough was to complain as the enemy planted doubt in the hearts and minds of the weary travelers.But time and time again God delievered them from their trials and comforted them in tribulations.They were being led by a proven leader,a God who could be trusted and who would not let them down.
This journey we travel will be full of troubles and uncertaintees,but we must trust that God is God and that he will do just what he said.He is a proven leader and those he has been given he has lost none.Jesus never fails.......
