Costly: 2 Peter: Prayers and Poetry

                Costly

                Lavished 
    
                with goodness and understanding

                strength and self-control

                patient endurance and godliness

                not tiny hints or

                hidden cures instead

                Holy Spirit embracing

                with kindness and love

                supporting through difficulties

                powerful guidance

                moment by moment

                Lavished.

Psalm 89:34: "My covenant I will not violate, Nor will I alter the utterance of My lips."

Price: 2 Peter: Prayers and Poetry

 2 Peter 1:4-6: "As a result of this, He has given you magnificent promises that are beyond all price, so that through the power of these tremendous promises we can experience partnership with the divine nature, by which you have escaped the corrupt desires that are of the world. So devote yourself to long lavishly supplementing your faith with goodness, and to goodness and understanding add the strength of self-control, and to self-control add patient endurance, and to patient endurance add godliness."

Price

Lavishly something we may rarely expect unless with our loved ones. Yet throughout all of both our difficulties and joys Lord, You continue to offer Your lavish gift of relationship with each one of us.

All Your promises we realize will never be broken. You continue to offer forgiveness every time we recognize our failure or our selfishness or the promises we break.

Please keep us so attached to Your words that we will live into them daily, from within our hearts and thoughts and actions and endurance in each situation.

Please keep reminding us to have the courage to lavish unto others as Your Spirit leads. And engage only into Your desires as You lead.

Your thoughts,
