Greatest Invitation Ever Made

As we spend our time with Jesus, as we obey Him and not ourselves and our cultures through the power of the Holy Spirit we become like Jesus. Our demeanor and desires begin to even be replaced. Everything we see in Jesus. The life we see in Jesus that we so desire we soon become that. Jesus had no anxiety, completely at peace. Jesus was full of joy. He was full of faith even in trying times. Jesus was completely one with the father. He was patient, gentle, good. Everything that we desire in Jesus as we spend time with him in obedience we become through the power of the Holy Spirit. Yet here is the catch, we cannot desire the life but not the lifestyle of Jesus. The life we see in Jesus is a result of his lifestyle. That is why he invites us to apprentice under him. He literally is inviting us to take his lifestyle upon us.
