We must be Holy because God is Holy

"Give the following instructions to the entire community of Israel. You must be holy because I, the Lord your God, am holy. Leviticus 19:2.

Being Holy does not mean being a "goodie two shoes", but rather walking in God's ways- His values, and not the world's. No one's perfect, and we all stumble and fall at times in life's journey, but it's our direction of travel that's important to God. As we choose to draw closer to God, it’s our heart attitude towards Him and others that matters to God. He hates how the world treats people and measures them by their wealth, fame or appearance. When we choose to follow God with Jesus in our heart, it'll become our desire to walk in His ways because He is a Holy God who gives us a depth of peace and acceptance that the world cannot give. Praise God today that as we choose to follow Him and walk in His ways, we’ll be filled with real joy and inner peace beyond words.
