Those whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brethren.
\n\u2013Romans 8:29<\/p><\/blockquote>\nThe Bible reveals God\u2019s purpose for our lives. Did you know God\u2019s will for your life has already been written in Scripture? It\u2019s found in Romans 8:29: \u201cThose whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brethren.\u201d<\/p>\n
If you\u2019re a Christian, then God saved you not just so you could escape hell but also so He could mold you to become like Jesus. God wants you to love the things Jesus loved, to think about the things Jesus thought about, and to behave like Jesus behaved. That is God\u2019s will for your life: that you become a perfect image of Jesus Christ in your attitudes, affections, and actions. And right now, God is chiseling away those habits and priorities in your life that are unlike Jesus. Sometimes it\u2019s a painful operation. God\u2019s will isn\u2019t for everything in your life to be easy, but He uses everything in your life\u2013even the hard things\u2013to make you more like His Son. That is God\u2019s general purpose for you.<\/p>\n
