Christian Life is All About - 4 steps

29 For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters. Romans 8:29



Step 1
- Jesus the incarnated Son of God is the reigning Lord of our lives


Step 2
- We have a personal responsibility to "live out" what he placed within us ( righteous life)

Step 3
-God wills and works within us to make it so - awesome promise to us

Step 4
-God's Ultimate goal for us is Christ-likeness

If you have recently accepted Christ as your Lord and Savior this is what we Christian have to focus on. Our life is filled with hope, hope that life does not end and our best treasurers are with Him for eternity.

It is a pleasurable thing for God that we walk in His spirit. Psalm 147:11 says: 
the LORD delights in those who fear him, who put their hope in his unfailing love.

Psalm 119:35-40
35 Direct me in the path of your commands,
   for there I find delight.
36 Turn my heart toward your statutes
   and not toward selfish gain.
37 Turn my eyes away from worthless things;
   preserve my life according to your word.
38 Fulfill your promise to your servant,
   so that you may be feared.
39 Take away the disgrace I dread,
   for your laws are good.
40 How I long for your precepts!
   In your righteousness preserve my life.

God bless :)
