What does it mean when we say we want to be more "Christlike"? It sure sounds good, but how does it actually play out in our lives?
I like the way the prayer below spells it out. Make me a lover of souls. Make me a dispenser of grace. I like that. (Please substitute gender references as necessary.)
Amazing Grace and Eternal Peace to you today,
Bruce
Make me more and more like you, Lord.
Make me a servant, like you.
Make me a lover of souls, like you.
Make me a shepherd, like you.
Make me a rod in your hand,
a cedar of Lebanon,
a man of integrity.
Make me a mighty man of valor.
Make me a healer of hurts,
a dispenser of grace,
a fount of compassion,
Like you.
Amen.
