Did you know that the Bible tells you to imitate God? It surely does! We can read in (Ephesians 5:1-2)…..Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children and live a life of love, 2 just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.
No doubt you have seen a child imitating their parent, their favorite super hero, or actor. Sometimes those being imitated are pleased, but sometimes embarrassed. Just as earthly children imitate their parents, super hero, or favorite actor, children of God are supposed to imitate their Heavenly Father. In what way are we to imitate God? Should we try to create what He created in Genesis? No! We are to imitate God by walking in love instead of selfishness. By being givers instead of takers. By being just like Jesus Christ.
