Actually, I was meditating on what Jesus said to Simon Peter & Andrew by the sea. "Come, follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men." So I was in awe about that cuz the Lord said He would do the transforming. All they had to do was follow Him. To keep their eyes on Him and just follow along.
And then I read 1 Peter 2 where it talks about how babes in Christ grow up spiritually. How the Lord Himself is building us up into His spiritual church, a royal priesthood, each one of us precious gems, chosen by God, a church of lively stones.
Then it goes on in 1 Peter 2 that we are
set free to be like Christ, we are free to follow Him, as opposed to being in bondage to our flesh trying to change ourselves. That's awesome! Isn't it?
And in Revelation 1:6 it reads that to Jesus who loves us and washed us from our sins with His precious blood, we
have been made kings and priests by the Lord, He created each of us, chose each of us to show the world His glory and power forever and ever!
Isn't that amazing?
