Know, love, and submit. That's the heart of it. Know God (John 17:3; 1 Corinthians 2:12; 2 Timothy 1:12), love Him with all you've got (Matthew 22:36-38), and submit your will and way to His (Romans 12:1; James 4:10). Do these things persistently and consistently and you will find yourself shining brightly for Christ and being a clear reflection of him to the world. The keys to Christlikeness are simple, but the "turning" of them in the lock of spiritual living is not. In fact, it takes the power of God for any of us to faithfully do any of these three basic things. From beginning to end, our walk with God is fundamentally His doing. (Philippians 2:13; 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24)
Thanks. I shouldn't probably try to "speed up" sanctification but these are still some necessary things to do.
