Ephesians 5:1-2

Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.
Ephesians 5:1-2″

Living a true life is about reflecting the character of God in all that we do. God is just, loving, compassionate, merciful, and faithful. When we align our lives with His character, we can experience true fulfillment and purpose.

In “Ephesians 5:1-2“, we are urged to imitate God as dear children and walk in love, just as Christ also loved us and gave Himself for us. This is the foundation of living a true life – to love as God loves us.

Living a true life means seeking justice and speaking up for the oppressed, just as God does. It means showing compassion to those in need, as God does. It means being merciful and forgiving, as God is to us. And it means being faithful and trustworthy, just as God is faithful to His promises.

When we live a life aligned with God’s character, we not only honor Him, but we also shine His light in a dark world. We become vessels of His love, justice, and compassion, and we can make a true impact on those around us.

Let us Pray:

Dear Lord, almighty, Heavenly Father, we thank You for Your character that we can strive to emulate. Help us to live a true life based on Your character, to love as You love, to seek justice, to show compassion, to be merciful, and to be faithful. May our lives reflect Your light and draw others to You. Guide us and empower us to live in a way that honors You. Thank you dear Lord, almighty Heavenly Father. We pray this through the mighty, glorious, fulfilling name of Jesus Christ. Amen!

Much LoVe, Joy, Peace and Blessings to you, through Jesus Christ, our mighty, dear Lord, Saviour and Redeemer.
