God wants His people to become like Christ. Christlikeness is the will of God for the people of God. J.R.W. Stott [1]

1 Corinthians 12:31 “now I will show you the most excellent way”[2]

You may find it helpful to pray through for a few days what love looks like in practice:

“Every Christian is to become a little Christ. The whole purpose of becoming a Christian is simply nothing else.”

―C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

“now I will show you the most excellent way”

Continuing to reflect on 1 Corinthians 13…

Loving Father in Heaven, with the help of your grace I will bring all my thoughts and desires into line with your will. I offer my body and soul as a living sacrifice, in union with the perfect sacrifice of my saviour Jesus Christ.

Monday: love ‘always trusts’
