“Be perfect, just like your Father in heaven is perfect.”
— Matthew 5:48 (Paraphrased)
✨ Growing to Be Like God
Jesus wants us to grow to be more like God—not by being perfect at everything, but by loving like God does! When we show kindness, tell the truth, and forgive, we are acting like our Heavenly Father.
God knows we won’t always get it right, but He wants us to keep growing every day.
🏛 Long Ago…
Children in the early church learned that God wanted them to grow in love and goodness. They weren’t perfect, but they kept trying to be more like Jesus.
💡 Think About It:
- What does it mean to love like God?
- How can you grow to be more like Him today?
✨ Let’s Pray:
Jesus, help me grow in love every day. I want to be like You and my Father in heaven. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
