God has created many animals and sea creatures that we may never see in person. One of the unusual creatures is the mimic octopus. This octopus can change shape and color to appear to be an entirely different species.

“Mimic octopuses have been observed mimicking numerous different species of animals, some animals being mimicked more often than others. Among the animals mimicked are lionfish (the octopus holds its arms out radially to mimic the fish’s spines), sea snake (hiding 6 of its arms, it holds the remaining 2 parallel to each other),^[9]jellyfish(by inflating its mantle and trailing its arms behind it), and zebra sole (holding all 8 arms behind it as it uses its siphon to swim). The octopus’ mimicry of flatfish may be its preferred guise; a 2008 study showed that over a period of 5 days, nearly 500 instances of flatfish mimicry were seen by a single individual.”

It reminds me of some people who mimic being a Christian. They go to church regularly, act spiritual, they may sing in church and even become church leaders. But, they have never truly accepted Jesus as their Savior.

If you are a mimic Christian, you can make a permanent change. Ask Jesus to be your Savior today.

2 Corinthians 5:17 – Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
