Ephesians 5:1-2 (NLT)

 FROM TODAY’S READING (2/8/2021)...

Today’s thought was derived directly from an article titled “10 Ways To Really Be More Like Jesus,” by James Emery White. I pray you find them as engaging and insightful as I did. 

  1. Hang out with sinners (Luke 15:1, NIV).
  2. Afflict the comfortable (Matthew 23:25-27, NIV).
  3. Comfort the afflicted (Matthew 11:28-30, THE Message).
  4. Promote the dignity and worth of women (John 20:17-18, NLT).
  5. Protect children (Matthew 18:5-6, NIV).
  6. Care more about reaching the list than catering to the found (Luke 5:31-32, The Message).
  7. Care nothing about power, prominence, position or prestige (Philippians 2:5-7, NIV).
  8. Live simply (Matthew 10:9-10, NLT).
  9. Be anti-racist (John 4:7-9, NIV).
  10. Make sure it’s never about you (Mark 10:45, NLT).

Ephesians‬ ‭5:1-2‬ ‭(NLT‬) Imitate God, therefore, in everything you do, because you are his dear children. 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.
