Why should we have the desire to imitate God? We find a strong motivation in Paul's words already quoted: "Become imitators of God, as beloved children." Indeed, Jehovah sees his servants as children whom he loves with all his heart. Is not that a very moving idea? And just as a child imitates his father, true Christians do everything possible to imitate their heavenly Father.
However, Jehovah does not force us to imitate him. Rather, it honors us by granting us free will. Therefore, each one of us must decide if he will strive to act like him (Deuteronomy 30:19, 20). What we must never forget is that we all have the ability to cultivate qualities like yours. Of course, to imitate it, you must first know it. If we study the Bible, we will learn a lot about the incomparable personality of God and we will be able to count ourselves among the millions of people who imitate him today.
