[:en]JUST LIKE DAD
Children are great imitators. They listen to what their parents are saying. They observe what they are doing. And they copy their actions.
Jesus is also doing exactly what the Father did – reaching out to the lost, helping the needy, and healing the sick. He said: “the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because what the Father does, the Son also does” (John 5:19)
As children of God, we too are called to do the same – to follow God’s example of walking in truth and living with love. We are to grow more like Jesus – to love, to care, to forgive and to please God. Let us copy His actions in the power of the Spirit and reap the reward of an affectionate, tender smile from our loving Father. – (Leslie Koh)[:]
