Being a far-sighted person

2 Peter 1 : 5For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; 6and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; 7and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love. 8For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9But if anyone does not have them, he is nearsighted and blind, and has forgotten that he has been cleansed from his past sins.

Being a far-sighted person
I believe being a christian is not just going to church, singing a few songs and giving offering. I believe God is very much concerned with our way of life and our walk with him.

Just as we come to God through faith, we need to add to the faith qualities that defines us as a Christian. -God desires us not to only have faith but have a good heart. - bible says what is faith without deeds. So i believe the first transformation is our heart. And add to it knowledge, meaning the word of God... so we know whatever we do is right or wrong. Many of us may be sincere in helping but sometimes we can be sincerely wrong.


God wants us to continually change in our character so that we can be more like christ each day.

The key to growth is to allow God to change you
