One of the ways we learn is by observation. This is a powerful way of learning. The problem is that many people are not aware of that so they hang around with and learn from the “wrong crowd”. The Lord Jesus lived His life in such a way that it became an example to the disciples. John 13:15 says: “For I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you”. We need to carefully pick out those who we choose to learn from. We are always learning from someone, so decide to focus only on those who will give you an excellent example. Phillipians 3:17 (ERV) says: “Brothers and sisters, join together in following my example. Also, learn by watching those who are living the way we showed you”. Make a quality assessment today of whose example you have been following to ensure that your mind and heart is receiving the right training. Are they taking you higher? Are they drawing you closer to Christ? Are they affirming who you are in Christ? Remember, those who you spend time with could help to make you successful or help to destroy you!
