Put on your new nature, created to be like God – truly righteous and holy (Ephesians 4:24; NLT).
Instead, we will speak the truth in love, growing in every way more and more like Christ (Ephesians 4:15; NLT).
The Lord – who is the Spirit – makes us more and more like him as we are changed into his glorious image (2 Corinthians 3:18; NLT).

I love you, Lord,
With all my heart,
Yet this is nothing,
When compared
With all your love
For me.
Your heart and soul
Are infinite,
But mine
Are very small –
So, may I grow
In love, my Lord,
Till I become
Like you.
