To Become Like Jesus
ROMANS 8:29 NLT
29 For God knew his people in advance, and he chose them to become like his
Son, so that his Son would be the firstborn, with many brothers and sisters.
Don't despair over your current condition -- you have an amazing destiny!
God's plan is to make you like Jesus Christ. Don't laugh! Remember that
nothing is impossible with God.
You WILL be like Jesus!
Always remember that this tops God's agenda for you. You may be concentrating
on some temporal project or need in your life. But God's focus is always on
transforming you into the likeness of Jesus Christ.
We can't expect becoming like Jesus to always be painless or without
difficulty. After all, most of us have quite a few rough edges. But, if we
understand what is going on in life, and we keep our eyes on God's goal, it
will be easier.
2 CORINTHIANS 4:17-18 NLT
17 For our present troubles are quite small and won't last very long. Yet
they produce for us an immeasurably great glory that will last forever! 18 So
we don't look at the troubles we can see right now; rather, we look forward
to what we have not yet seen. For the troubles we see will soon be over, but
the joys to come will last forever.
SAY THIS: I look forward to God finishing His work in me --
making me like Jesus.

YOU ARE
Are you looking for an unconditional love?
Someone who accepts you where you are and loves you no matter what? Look no
further than a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.
1 Peter 5:7 NIV
Never let the enemy tell you that you are worthless or insignificant.
You have value in the eyes of God so great that it was worth dying for. You
are a blessing to the world.
Did you know God's forgiveness and unconditional love is available for
anyone who asks?
If you haven't made the decision to accept Christ as Lord
