God created birds to train their young through a process known as imprinting. Biologists learned that, generally speaking, a newly hatched bird will pattern itself after the first thing it sees. In this way, a baby bird will learn how to act like a bird. We are called to follow God as our pattern, and this will only happen as we keep our focus on Him. Although Paul illustrated the change in our lifestyle with the putting on and off of clothing, Christianity is not something we can put aside while we go on summer vacation or when we get home from work. Christianity is not something which we can set aside when it is expedient to do so. Nor is Christianity something which we practice only on Sunday morning when we go to church. We have been included in every spiritual blessing in heavenly places according to chapter one, verse three. As such, we should walk worthy of our calling, according to chapter four, verse one. They way in which we walk worthy of our calling is a life that is patterned after God's character. So, if you take only one thing from our text, I want you to take the following: Pattern your life after Christ.
