Start Practicing

Dear friends, we are already God’s children, but he has not yet shown us what we will be like when Christ appears. But we do know that we will be like Him, for we will see Him as He really is.
— 1 JOHN 3:2 (NLT)

In high school I always wondered where I would work and how I would live after college. There were so many obstacles, influences, and activities ahead that I had zero clues about. If I could go back and talk to my eighteen-year-old self, I would tell him to focus more on being like Christ. I now know that when I seek Him first, and His righteousness, Christ will add everything I need. And because God told me I’m His child, I know when Christ returns, I will be like Him – so I can start practicing now! I can forgive today. I can give unselfishly today. I can show compassion to others. I can grant grace and extend mercy. I can pray for others. I can present God’s love as Christ’s ambassador. No matter my past, I can start practicing being like Christ today! Will you join me?

Heavenly Father, I am Your child, and even though I don’t know what I will be like when Christ appears, I do know I will be like Him, so I’m going to start practicing today until the day I see Him as He really is. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

This is my prayer
