Be imitators of God, therefore, as beloved children, and walk in love, just as Christ loved us and gave Himself up for us as a fragrant sacrificial offering to God. (Ephesians 5:1)

---

God is calling His children to imitate Him, reflecting His character to the world. Jesus is the perfect image of God. He denied Himself and sacrificed for others, and we are called to look to Him and model our lives after His example. The more you fix your eyes on Jesus and follow His ways, the more you will be conformed to the image of God.

Ask God to give you the strength to love as Jesus loves, and ask Him to fill you with the Holy Spirit. The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. When the fruit of the Spirit is evident in your life, you are imitating God. ~ Jeff M Newman
