Christians wear Jesus like a garment. They strive to imitate his qualities & actions to such an extent that they become a reflection of their Master —even if imperfect. We can successfully “put on the Lord Jesus Christ” if we become familiar with His life & strive to live as he lived. We imitate his humility, his love of righteousness, his hatred of lawlessness, his love for his brothers, his being NO PART of the world, and his patient endurance of suffering. We do not ‘plan ahead for the desires of the flesh’(Romans 13:14)—that is, we do not make our chief purpose in life the reaching of secular goals or the satisfying of fleshly desires. Rather, when making a decision or handling a problem, ask YOURSELF: ‘What would Jesus do in this situation? What would HE want me to do?’
