Our Example
The fencer is coming
No not a Cavalier prepared to defend my honour with a blade
This fencer is coming to give us a quote
We need a fence around the property
We have been looking for ages at other fences
Trying to get some idea of what we want
Eventually we found something we both like and took photographs
When the guy comes and says what do you want?
We can say this is what we’d like and we can work it out from there
It helps to know what you want
It helps to have an example
Which is why, when building a relationship with God, it really helps to have an example
And we do
We have the perfect example in Jesus Christ
By reading the Scriptures
We find so many lessons in Relationship
The Relationship Jesus has with Father God
Is one for which I hope
For which I sigh
Jesus puts God first
He honours Him and the bond they share
They are inseparable
They talk often
They trust
God knows His heart and is well pleased
Jesus shows me how to Love
How to teach
How to reach others
Knowing God
Loving God
Putting Him first
Is key to everything He does
Is key to all I aim for
I’m not alone
I will strive to be
Like Jesus
Holy Spirit guides me and
I’ll run to God every time
Psalm 91
