Four Marks of a Godly Person

I want to reveal the four marks of a godly person as I have observed them in the lives of truly victorious believers.

1. An Insatiable Appetite For The Word
All mature believers have a desire to fellowship with God around His Word. This is a dining experience where the banquet table is spread for all believers to be nourished. We are His guests. No admission fee. No hidden charges. No hidden agenda. No collection taken at the end to defray any expenses -- just a good meal.

2. A Devoted Prayer Life
The true saint of God goes humbly before His throne of grace in order to find help in time of need.

3. A “Care Less” Attitude About The Things Of This World
They truly see themselves as pilgrims in constant pursuit of that heavenly city.

4. A Non-Judgmental Attitude Toward Others
This mark reflects great maturity. They are never impatient with those who are not where they are.

In your journey you will meet few of these people. They are like diamonds. You can’t help but to be overtaken by their godly character. They in fact reflect the very character of God Himself. We should all strive to be like this. That's the way I see things.
