If we want to model ourselves on God, we ask, what is his character?
And we can spend years, decades, exploring the scripture to understand the character of God, his kindness and compassion, his love, his mercy, his justice, his patience and endurance, and his grace. And if we find any of these things lacking in ourselves in a way that they should be present then this gives us reason to pray specific prayers. Personally, I highly recommend praying to God, “God, please make me more compassionate.” But however we pray, we should pray in accordance with his Spirit as he leads and directs us.
Lord God, you are such an excellent role model and we do so little to imitate you. But please help us as you change and transform and guide us. Please help us to be those faithful, beloved children, modeling ourselves on our Heavenly Father. Amen.
