Are you being "Christlike" today?

The term "Christlike" can be confusing, however, I feel the term relates to our attitudes as Christians. Ruth Bell Graham said, "the term has to do with Christ's attitude toward His Father's will."

At times we as Christians are not the best representation. Many times our attitude is not very "Christlike." How should we answer those who are discouraged with Christianity because of Christians who do not represent Christ well?

I believe Dr. Akbar Haqq said it best when he said, "I am not offering you Christians ... I am offering you Christ."
Christ was perfect, we are not. As Christians we must put our trust in Him who was perfect, and do our best to stay in His will, imitate Christ, be "Christlike", and have the attitude of Christ.

Are you doing your best to be "Christlike" today? Another thought to consider.
