Day 17: Genesis 47-49; Psalm 17

Holy and Loving God, our Father,
You call us to be like You. That seems an impossibility. It is! Except, You call us to be holy and loving for that is Who You are (1 Peter 1:13-16). So, we must trust that You mean what You say. And, because You are loving and You are our Father, You make a way for us to become (and keep on becoming more) like You. You are the One Who cleanses our hearts as we surrender to You in faith (Acts 15:8-9). You fill us with Yourself, Your Holy Spirit and make Your home in us (John 14:15-18, 23). Then, You help us in our daily journey to becoming more like You, like Christ (2 Corinthians 3:18). Thank You that what is impossible for us is not impossible for You! And so, afresh today, we give ourselves to You. Fill us. Empower us. Use us. Be glorified in us as You live in us and through us to show Yourself to our world. We love You because You first loved us. In the Name of Jesus. Amen.
