If we are Christians, what are we supposed to be doing?
We are to be conformed to the image of JESUS! Growing & becoming more like JESUS!
Too often our spiritual motivation is comparing ourselves to others, which can sound something like, "Well, I'm not as bad as . . . "
When we look at JESUS, we should always see room to grow. It's what christianity is about - constantly look at JESUS to become like JESUS.
28 And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. 29 For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. Romans 8:28-29 NKJV
