I am beyond blessed to have a God who never gives up even when I want to have nothing to do with Him, when I fall short, when I fail.. He stands with arms wide open just waiting.
This week, I have been going through 1 Peter. There is a reason that the Lord has pointed me to that scripture. He showed me characteristics of Himself through Peter's writing. As I am preparing to leave for New York for two weeks, God has been showing several things.
1) When people question your faith, they are seeing the hope in you. Be prepared to do it in gentleness and respect.
2) We can only have a good conscience from Jesus through the cross and His resurrection.
3) I need to work on being more hospitable.
4) If you are insulted for the name of Christ, You are blessed. His Spirit rests upon you.
5) What you do and how you live are vital to the workings of the Kingdom.
6) We will never fully understand who God is but we can grow closer to Him through Worship.
Serve Him diligently and remember that He lives in you.
