FRIDAY, MARCH 7, 2014 - CHANGED INTO HIS LIKENESS (1 John 3:2 NASB) Beloved, now we are children of God, and it has not appeared as yet what we will be. We know that when He appears, we will be like Him because we will see Him just as He is. NOTES: Everything in our lives changes when we realize we are the children of God. As Gods children, weve been born again, we still must grow and develop. This means going through a wide variety of experiences--sometimes succeeding, sometimes failing; sometimes doing whats right, sometimes whats wrong; sometimes pleasing God, sometimes falling short. As a good Father. God doesnt give up on us when we make mistakes. he knows our nature and wants us to learn from our experiences. He wants to help us develop our minds and emotions, and grow spiritually strong. As our Father, God looks at us with eyes of love, seeking ways to protect and guide us. We shouldnt be surprised when He disciplines us, points out our faults, and helps us recognize areas where we need correction or improvement. Our ultimate destiny wont be clear until were present with Him. Then, and only then, we will be like Him, because we will see Him just as He is. Until that day, we must continue to change. As you look at your life, always remember that it has not appeared as yet what we will be. You are not in your final form. In fact, you cant even imagine what you will be like in eternity. Only God knows. Today, remember these truths. Obey Gods Word. Have faith. Trust Him. Hes trying to refine you and help you mature so youll be more like Jesus He desires to let His light shine through you more powerfully, so He can impact more lives. Surrender your life anew to Him! He is your loving Father. PRAYER: Father, I commit my life into Your hands. Mold me into Your image. Direct my life. I declare that Jesus is my Lord! Use me for Your Kingdom. In Jesus name. Amen.
