Becoming like Jesus...

If we can become more like Jesus we can point people to Jesus, which should be the
ultimate goal of our life. In doing this, we will also become one with God as Jesus
was one with God. The more we can become one with God, or Christlike, the more
forgiving, loving and merciful we will be to others. Ultimately treating people as
precious as God truly sees them. And when we obtain an unoffendable heart like
Jesus had, we will actually be able to pray for those who persecute us, even as they
continue to do it. As well as bless those who curse us, even as they continue to do it.
And it is when we can do that, others will see Christ in us and possibly desire what
we have. For it is in the moment that our lives speak of Christ louder than our words
do, that we are the most like Jesus. I believe God sent Jesus to not only die for our
salvation, but to also walk the earth in human form to show us the ultimate example
of what our lives should look like. Loving not our life, even unto death.
