consecrate themselves totally to the Father, as Jesus did;
• say and do only what pleases the Father, as Jesus did;
• accept pain, grief, disloyalty, and betrayal, as Jesus did;
• care for people and serve their needs without either compromise of principle or ulterior motives in practice, as Jesus did;
• accept opposition and isolation, hoping patiently for better things and meantime staying steady under pressure, as Jesus did;
• rejoice in the specifics of the Father's ways and thank Him for His wisdom and goodness, as Jesus did; and so on.
