Be like God

 We are told in our conduct to be like God:

1 Peter 1:15 

15 but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct,

The word holy has four basic meanings:

1. set apart

2. perfect, spiritually pure

3. evokes awe

4. filled with super human power, potential fatal power

So when God calls us to be holy, He is calling us to be set apart from the world and to be perfect or spiritually pure. This is what we are to strive for everyday following Jesus. Occasionally God fills a follower with superhuman power through the Holy Spirit to accomplish a work for Him but generally definition 3 and 4 belong to God only. 

So as we go through the day let us answer the call and be holy in everything we do and bring glory to our awesome God!
