Good morning ladies,
The word of the day is “praise.” I’ve got to say that this
is one of my favorite words in the Christian language. Peter reminds his people
of how special they are in God’s eyes. To be called as part of a royal
priesthood is pretty incredible. The author reminds his readers of who is
responsible for the good stuff in their lives.
“But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation,
a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called
you out of darkness into his wonderful light.”
~1 Pet. 2:9-10
My question is: how does praise affect your life? God has
set out to do some good stuff through you. The only thing we really need to do
is be ready for that stuff, accept it, and then give him the praise and honor.
Think of all of the good stuff in your life right now. I would encourage you to
take a few moments and just give God praise for those things. Then, think of
all the hard stuff in your life. Give him praise for working through it with
you. God will continue to do amazing things in your life. Always remember that
he has called you to be set apart. My prayer is that you accept his blessings
and realize how special you are in God’s eyes.
