more like You

resting in your presence

is all i really want, lord

sitting in your presence

is all i really ask for

...and i want to be more like you...

waiting in your presence

is all i really long for

staying in your presence

is all i really want, lord

...and i want to be more like you

this post is based on my november 28th, and jessels march 4th posts...

i don't think that it's possible to be perfect, but Jesus is perfect, and he's calling us to be more like him. so what does he mean by that? what does he expect from us? i think it's kind of like, becoming like one of your friends. you hang out with them, and change little things about your attitude or character. that's how i see it. who would be a better person to do that with than Jesus anyways? he is selfless, giving, merciful, forgiving, loving, and such a good friend. i want to be a little more of that! we as christians should be striving for those things, and after all, the word christian means "little christ" right? and God wants us all to keep taking that next step closer to who he is.

Zephaniah 3:17

"The Lord your God is with you,
he is mighty to save.
He will take great delight in you,
he will quiet you with his love,
he will rejoice over you with singing."

(this verse doesn't have anything to do with my post, but bob prayed it over me at esperanza and i though it was pretty sweet)
