Thursday, May 24th - 1 Peter 1:13-21

Good Morning!

Lisa's tweet: LMRMinistries: 1 Peter 1:13-21 ~ Out of love and gratitude to God, choose self-control.  Through prayer, rely on God's power to help you choose.

What a powerful passage.  Do you see all the verbs - prepare, be, set, live, and believe!  We need to prepare our minds for action - be self-controlled - set our hope on the grace to be given to us when Jesus Christ is revealed.   Be holy as He is holy! 
We are to live as strangers in this world and not conform to the evil around us, but remember that we were bought with a price - the precious blood of Jesus Christ - the Lamb!  Through Jesus we believe in God!  Our faith and hope are in God - the very one that raised Jesus from the dead and glorified Him.
God has not promised us an easy road, but He has promised to walk it with us every step of the way and will help and lead throughout the journey.  He is our Rock!  He is our salvation!  He is the reason we live!

Choose self-control and rely on God's power to choose!

Have a great day!
