Are you becoming?

Becoming what? You might ask. Well, first let me ask another question; What would you like to become? It seems that so many of us don’t have a clue. We don’t really have any grand plans, no dreams, no great aspirations, no goals for the future beyond maintaining the status quo. And if you are in the mindset of just maintaining the status quo you are not growing, in

And if you are in the mindset of just maintaining the status quo you are not growing, in fact, you are most likely going backward exponentially. So, let me ask again, are you becoming? How about becoming a better human being? And don’t tell me that you have reached the pinnacle of humankind and that there is no more room for growth, ‘cause I know you, and you are just like me. O.K., How about becoming a better… well, YOU! Or how about becoming a better, sweeter, kinder, more loving, man or woman. A better husband, wife, oh, you get the idea.

O.K., How about becoming a better… well, YOU! Or how about becoming a better, sweeter, kinder, more loving, man or woman. A better husband, wife, oh, you get the idea. Personally, I would like to be a better friend, a kinder, more considerate human being.

Wow, or how about this, let’s become more Christ-like, yeah, what an idea! Why didn’t I think of that? When you dwell on it, even though it seems unreasonable, almost impossible at first; BECOMING is not only possible, but it is mandated by God Himself, because He wants us to become, and His word tells us that when He calls us, He enables us, so we are not doing it on our own but because He is empowering us! And not only that but all things that are GOOD are possible for them that love God! So, how about it, are you becoming?
