Spiritual Strength
Imitate God, therefore, in everything you do, because you are his dear children. Ephesians 5:1
Spiritual strength is one of the foundational pillars to living out life as a follower of Christ. If we think about one of our goals as we journey in a relationship with Christ, one is to experience spiritual strength.

For me, reading different translations is like enjoying a good meat in many ways. There is nothing like a piece of fried chicken, but have you experienced curry chicken? It’s just as good!

Imitate God, therefore, in everything you do because you are his dear children. In doing so you will receive spiritual strength to live out a life filled with faith and great courage. Live a life filled with love, following the example of Christ. He loved us and offered himself as a sacrifice for us, a pleasing aroma to God.
If we want to be like Jesus, we have the opportunity to read, study and understand the Living Word. Be imitators of God.
