Growing up like Dad

"Therefore, be imitators of God, as beloved children; and walk in love, just as Christ himself also loved you, and gave himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma." Ephesians 5:1-2

Imitators of God Be Loved

We literally come from the DNA from both our mother and father. That one day, if not yet, we would look like them. Louie Giglio described that it is the same when we are spiritually born again to our heavenly Father. We receive His DN, Divine Nature.

"His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature and escape the corruption in the world caused by evil desires." 2 Peter 1:2-3

As children we watch the relationships around us and start to model ourselves on what we see. We grow up to be imitators of our parents. Yes it is the same, when we are born again; we become God's child and when we spend more time with our Father God we will grow up to be imitators of Him.

Be responsible to grow up to be a son or daughter of God. We have the breath of our Father God inside us. We got God's genes so let us grow up to be like Him.
