Friday's Living Water

Scripture –

As obedient children, do not be conformed to the former lusts which were yours in your ignorance,
But like the Holy One who called you, be holy yourselves also in all your behavior;
because it is written, "YOU SHALL BE HOLY, FOR I AM HOLY."
1 Peter 1: 14-16



Como hijos obedientes, no os conforméis a los deseos que antes teníais en vuestra ignorancia,
sino que así como aquel que os llamó es santo, así también sed vosotros santos en toda vuestra manera de vivir;
porque escrito está: SED SANTOS, PORQUE YO SOY SANTO.
1 Pedro 1: 14-16

Tuesday's Living Water

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)
