Reading: 1 Peter 2:1-4: "So abandon every form of evil, deceit, hypocrisy, feelings of jealously and slander. In the same way that nursing infants cry for milk, you must intensely crave the pure spiritual milk of God's Word. For this 'milk' will cause you to grow into maturity, fully nourished and strong for life--especially now that you have had a taste of the goodness of Yahweh and have experienced His kindness. So keep coming to Him who is the Living Stone--though He was rejected and discarded by men but chosen by God and is priceless in God's sight.
Word
He provides ongoing fresh words in all situations to remind us to turn to them and not reach for the negative and accusing attitude that we so often react to--whether in thoughts or retort.
To recognize that when we attack outwardly we attack within ourselves as well.
Yet if we stay on the path of His heart we can stay connected to truth--to guidance--to mercy--in all situations.
Thank you Lord for Your ongoing words for us that will guide us in prayer, in work, in relationships, in decisions, and in daily choices.
Please teach us how to extend Your priceless kindness to others, no matter the circumstances, and grow Your grace within us to pass on to others.
Your thoughts,
