'Some day I shall be like that!
Some day I shall be like that!
"For those whom God foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son! " Romans 8:29
No sooner do we begin to behold the fair face that looks out at us from the gospel chapters, than a great hope springs up in our hearts. We can become like Jesus! Indeed, if we are God's children, we shall become like Him.
We are foreordained to be conformed to His image.
It matters not how faintly the Divine beauty now glimmers in our soiled and imperfect lives — some day we shall be like Him!
As we struggle here with our imperfections and infirmities, with scarcely one trace of Christlikeness yet apparent in our life, we still may say, when we catch glimpses of the glorious loveliness of Christ, " Some day I shall be like that! "
"We know that when He appears, we shall be like Him, because we will see Him just as He is!" 1 John 3:2
