being conformed to the image of Jesus

Signs and wonders should follow the preaching of the Gospel. We trust God to take care of the change in the believer’s life. Seeking the Kingdom of God is priority.

There is a thing going on in the heart of those who accept the Kingdom. Those in the kingdom will find themselves being conformed to the image of Jesus who made himself of no reputation and became a servant. One must notice that this stuff was happening to Jesus while he was in this world. If we are not being changed into the likeness of Jesus right now in this world, there is no reason to believe it is going to happen at some point after death.
We find ourselves more concerned with others than own little world. Our giving does not have to be justified; we give because that is who we are. Try as they will people will find it hard to anger us, or cause us to retaliate; we turn the other cheek and return evil with good and hate with love. Loving our enemy has become our nature, we say with Jesus, "Father forgive them", and we would never consider retaliation or the need to have our way. Sleeping good at night and worry-free days mark our existence.
When it comes to prayer we understand that our Father knows what we need. We have become so one with Jesus and our father we can actually see what he is doing in us and around us.
