I just had to share this verse from the two translations I looked at this evening. I just love the words, "blazing with holiness"! Our lives so driven and shaped by God; our hope set fully on His grace! We do prepare our minds for action when we are in His Word. Each day we catch a glimpse of Him and His Holiness as we read His Word. Isn't it awesome? Isn't it amazing?
Scripture-
Therefore, prepare your minds for action; be self-controlled; set your hope fully on the grace to be given you when Jesus Christ is revealed.
1 Peter 1:13 (NIV)
As obedient children, let yourselves be pulled into a way of life shaped by God's life, a life energetic and blazing with holiness. God said, "I am holy; you be holy."
1 Peter 1:13 (The Message)
Reading - Slowly read the Scripture passage several times
Meditation - Take some time to reflect on the words and phrases in the text. Which words, phrases or images speak to you most?
Prayer - Offer the internalized passage back to God in the form of a personalized prayer of adoration, confession, renewal, petition, intercession, affirmation, or thanksgiving.
Contemplation - What word or image captures the spirit of the passage for you?
