During the months of December and January people are thinking about positive changes in their lives. It would help if we tried to imitate someone who is righteous.

• Like Paul, forget those things which are behind and press on toward the goal (Philippians 3:13-14).
• Like Andrew, strive to lead others to Christ (John 1:40-42).
• Like Barnabas, encourage brethren to remain faithful (Acts 11:23).
• Like Daniel, purpose in your heart to be undefiled as you serve the Lord (Daniel 1:8).
• Like Job, be faithful and persevere through all the trials you face (Job 1:13-22).
• Like Joshua, make a commitment for the sake of yourself and your family (Joshua 24:15).
