God's Word for Friday, 9/13/19

Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous:
1 Peter 3:8 KJV


Summing up: be agreeable, be sympathetic, be loving, be compassionate, be humble. That goes for all of you, no exceptions. No retaliation. No sharp-tongued sarcasm. Instead, bless—that’s your job, to bless. You’ll be a blessing and also get a blessing. Whoever wants to embrace life and see the day fill up with good, here’s what you do: say nothing evil or hurtful; snub evil and cultivate good; run after peace for all you’re worth. God looks on all this with approval, listening and responding well to what he’s asked; but he turns his back on those who do evil things.
1 Peter 3:8 MSG

I hear you, my friend. Just remember that the Word say to give thanks IN everything, not FOR everything. 😊

As we walk in the light, we will regularly confess our sins, allowing the blood of Christ to continually cleanse us. 1 John 1:9

He understands, NFO. And I agree. We just have to keep trying. :-)
