Scripture Leviticus 11: [44] I am the LORD your God; consecrate yourselves and be holy, because I am holy. Do not make yourselves unclean by any creature that moves about on the ground.<\/p>\n
Observation: We are to be like Jesus and imitate Him. Our God is holy and tells us we are to be Holy, set apart for Him. God gave us His example for a perfect life in Jesus, even though we can\u2019t live a perfect life like our Lord we need to try each day, even if we fail we need to get back up and try again. <\/p>\n
Application: My problem is that I try to imitate the people of this world and even though they may have good intentions they are not anywhere as good as my Lord. I need to ask myself what would Jesus do and then do it. I need to live a life for Him, so others may see Him through my actions. I\u2019m called to be holy and that is my goal in life to be holy and pleasing to God.<\/p>\n
Prayer: My Lord I know this is a big task to be like Jesus, but I know I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Please strengthen me and make me holy to you. Change my focus from this world to your kingdom. I love you and want to please you before I come home.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
