Being Made Like Jesus
“For those whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brethren; and these whom He predestined, He also called; and these whom He called, He also justified; and these whom He justified, He also glorified.” — Romans 8:29–30 (NASB 1995)
Before you took your first breath, God saw you. He called you. And He destined you to look like Jesus—not just in heaven someday, but here, today, as the Spirit works in you.
The Holy Spirit is the one shaping your character, conforming your heart, pruning your will. You are not alone in this process. It’s not perfection He’s after—it’s transformation. And He won’t stop until He finishes what He started.
Reflection:
What part of your life is being shaped right now? How can you yield more to the Spirit’s work?
Prayer:
Holy Spirit, I surrender to Your work in me. Make me more like Jesus. Let my life reflect His beauty, humility, and love. 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.

● I don’t have a budget for an editor, publisher, or team behind the scenes. Everything you see here is created prayerfully and paid for out of pocket, using the tools I can afford to help present a clear, polished message of truth and hope.
