I Want to Be...

Live a life filled with love, following the example of Christ. He loved us and offered himself as a sacrifice for us, a pleasing aroma to God.
Ephesians 5:2 NLT

As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up? Are you there yet? Did you recognize the talents born within you that led you on a predictable path? Or are you worlds apart from what you thought you would be? Think about it for a moment...

While being formed in our mothers' wombs, God put within us every gift and talent we would need to fulfill His plan for our lives. Are we working with Him or fighting against Him? 

Ultimately, we are to strive to be like Christ. To love and to serve. How are we doing?

Prayer:

Father, 

          Keep us ever mindful to follow in Your footsteps - to walk only where You have gone before us - to know that every step we take either puts us one step closer to You or one step further away. In Jesus' Name we pray.  Amen
