To be like you

As a Christian, it is our calling and desire to be Christ-like in all we do. Of course, I'll never meet that perfection, but He is our example in love, faith and actions. Sometimes it is hard to think I could ever be anything like Christ. He is God, after all.

Then, there are times in life when God blesses you with people who exemplify Christ in their lives. Times when you realize, you're seeing Christ-likeness in someone else. Someone human just like you. When you see that, it blesses you completely.

This week we were once again blessed by some people who have shown us Christ's love. They love, give and encourage in ways that bless us so much. We are humbled and incredibly grateful to be on the receiving end of their faith in action. Not all who claim the name of Christ truly exemplify Him, but this week we have been on the receiving end of the faith in action of dear friends who truly know what it means to be Christ-like. God bless you as you have blessed us.
