A Little More Like...

I’ve made a point to post at least one song to social media on Sunday mornings going on a few months now. Since I started these videos, I wanted to continue the trend. Today’s featured song is Zach Williams’ “Less Like Me.” The lyrics of the song are fantastic all around. Here’s the chorus:
 
“A little more like mercy, a little more like grace
A little more like kindness, goodness, love, and faith
A little more like patience, a little more like peace
A little more like Jesus, a little less like me”
 
There are plenty of Bible verses that encourage us to grow in our faith and become more like Jesus. Here are a couple verses to encourage you today:
 
“Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children; and walk in love, just as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma.”
-Ephesians 5:1-2 (NASB)
 
I don’t know about you, but most days I’m more like me than I am like Jesus. If I’m honest, I’m not knocking it out of the park when it comes to things like mercy, grace, kindness, goodness, love, faith, patience or peace. Good thing God doesn’t keep score and make us earn our way to heaven huh? If that was the case, we would definitely be on the losing end. Thanks to Jesus giving Himself up for us, however, the battle is over. When this game of life comes to an end, if we’ve chosen Jesus as our captain, we will find that we are on the winning team. Jesus is the all-time saves’ leader and for that He deserves our endless praise!
