Be like Him


Are you known by your ability to love? Are you known by your ability to tell people off?

Let others see Jesus using you as a living vessel for Him. Show people Jesus is “The Light of the world”. Be still and allow Jesus to use you as a mirror. Don’t worry about the outward appearance.

6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. 7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us. 8 We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; 9 Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed; 10 Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. 2 Corinthians 4:6-10

Offense has no place in a Christian’s life. We can not compare what we have done for others to what Christ did for us. Ungodly things should die and fall off our person when reading God’s Word. Do we want prejudice and pride, or do we want peace?

24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father’s which sent me. 25 These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you. 26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. 27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.
John 14:24-27

Refusing to love and forgive is the same as rejecting the Lord and His Word. What if Jesus came down from the Cross because people did not like Him? We are called by our Creator to be fruitful and multiply – bring forth good things. (For many are called, but few are chosen. Matthew 22:14

God did not make us like evil. He made us like Him. Our job as Fruit Bearers in the Earth – is a continual process. If you do not know your purpose in life – here is the answer. Be like Jesus.
