“Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.”Romans 12:2 NLT
As a child of God I am called to copy my Heavenly Father. Hebrews says: you must be holy: “Work at living in peace with everyone, and work at living a holy life, for those who are not holy will not see the Lord.” (Hebrews 12:14 NLT)
Holiness is not a worldly attribute. It is a godly attribute. How do we be holy? By not copying the world. We do not belong to the world any more. Hatred, malice, evil thoughts all belong to the world. Love, joy, peace, goodness, mercy, long suffering, meekness, self-control belong to God’s kingdom. Daily I must choose who I will represent.
Today I leave my house sit, may I leave it in better shape than when I arrived. I pray that I am a blessing today. Amen!
