Christ. The Perfect Role Model

Blog Single

In the world that we live in, each and everyone of us has someone that we look up to. These individuals at times stand in the position of a mentor or role model to us. However, it is important to note that these individuals that we so much admire and look up to did not just wish for themselves what we see in them. I am persuaded that the traits that drew us closer to them were not conferred on them by chance neither were they born with such admirable characters. I believe it must have taken a lot of effort in their pursuit of building such admirable characters and virtues. They made a huge effort to develop the characters that others admire and can only dream of having. Just like Joseph, they decided to be different and stand out in their generation. Greatness awaits people who decide to stand out in their generation because God can trust these people with His hidden treasures and secret plans.The ultimate role model in our walk as believers is Christ; not a man of God or preacher or any human figure. People that we look up to as role models today chose to stand out and be different in their generation. They mind gully and constantly add values and virtues to themselves so that they can shoulder high among the crowd. Instead of deciding to take after a human figure, decide to take after Christ – talk like Christ, dress like Christ, give like Christ, and act like Christ. Brand yourself in a way that when people see you they will see Christ in you. This does not mean that you should not have a role model or mentor but in getting one, let Christ be your ultimate role model in your walk through life.
