Following the Leader

Everybody remembers playing follow the leader, you just follow the person chosen as 'the leader' and do what they do. But what happened when you had a bigger kid in front of you and you couldn't see the leader? Easy, you just followed the bigger kid, right? Unless of course the other kid went his own way and decided to make himself the leader. Then, you weren't following the leader anymore, you were just following. Jesus said, "Follow me." It's our job to keep our eyes on the leader and follow Him. If we lose sight of Jesus and follow the others, there is a chance you could both fall into a ditch. I'm not saying that following someone else's leadership is bad, just be sure you don't make them the leader.
