Meditation video for the evening:
The Purpose Driven Life - Finding Your Purpose
CHAPTER 22 - CREATED TO BECOME LIKE CHRIST
You were created to become like Christ.
From the very beginning, God's plan has been to make you like his Son, Jesus. This is your destiny and the third purpose of your life. In all of creation, only human beings, are made "in God's image." This is a great privilege and gives us dignity.
Is is the Holy Spirit's job to produce Christlike character in you. You cannot reproduce the character of Jesus on your own strength. New Year's resolutions, willpower, and best intentions are not enough. Only the Holy Spirit has the power to make the changes God wants to make in our lives.
We must cooperate with the Holy Spirit's work.
God uses his Word, people, and circumstances to mold us.
Becoming like Christ is a long, slow process of growth.
Point to Ponder: I was created to become like Christ.
Verse to Remember: "As the Spirit of the Lord works within us, we become more and more like him and reflect his glory even more." 2 Corinthians 3:18b (NLT)
Question to Consider: In what area of my life do I need to ask for the Spirit's power to be like Christ today?
