If you want to know anyone, if you want to love anyone, if you want to follow anyone, if you want to be like anyone, if you want to be with anyone, JESUS CHRIST.
Grow in your knowledge of Him. Keep reading the scriptures. Keep meeting with Him. Keep talking with Him. Keep surrounding yourself with people who love Him. Keep growing in your knowledge of Him. Be captivated by Him. Be satisfied by Him. Hold Him as your greatest treasure. Hold Him as your deepest joy. Trust Him. Love Him. Follow Him. Obey Him. Submit to Him. Imitate Him. Enjoy Him, till you meet Him face-to-face and your faith becomes sight. It’s about Jesus. It’s always about Jesus. It’s only about Jesus.
Mark Driscoll, from the message Perseverance Until God is Finished With You (1 Peter 3:14-18) (via thoughtfusion)
