How can we live up to the Gospel?

According to Philippians 1:27, we are to live up to the Gospel. How can you and I do that?

Let us humbly ask Our Lord Himself to help us live a life worthy of His Gospel.

"O God, please lead and guide us Yourself to become:
humble, holy, pure, genuine, true, sincere, honest, loving, kind, considerate, compassionate, obedient, just, diligent, wise, disciplined, prayerful, courageous, bold, faithful, trustworthy, thankful, grateful, patient, persevering, appreciative, respectful, brave, loyal, discerning, good, dutiful, gentle, polite, caring, useful, helpful, self-controlled, and united in Christ Jesus Our Lord.
Yes, Lord, May You mold us to become godly and Christlike throughout the rest of our lives. Let us be what You have designed us to be!

O God, we also ask that You lead and guide us to do what You want us to do for the rest of our lives. May we faithfully:

-do our jobs/ministries in the spirit of Christ
-help, support and care for each other
-give as You direct us
-preach and teach Your Word faithfully
-do works of charity
-practice hospitality
-serve whoever, whenever and wherever

O God, May our BEING and our DOING please, honor and glorify You now and forever. Amen."
