I opened up my Bible this morning and these verses in 1 Peter seemed to jump off the page. This is right where I'm at! I'm working on cultivating hospitality, finding new ways to show love to others and trying to develop a greater sense of servant-heartedness. I've been praying about a ministry and service opportunities. There are so many to choose from, but where would God have me go? It's becoming clearer with each tiny step of obedience I take. May these verses be as they were for me this morning - honey to your soul!
1 Peter 4:7-11
7 The end of all things is near; therefore, be of sound judgment and sober spirit for the purpose of prayer.
8 Above all, keep fervent in your love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins.
9 Be hospitable to one another without complaint.
10 As each one has received a special gift, employ it in serving one another as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.
11 Whoever speaks, is to do so as one who is speaking the utterances of God; whoever serves is to do so as one who is serving by the strength which God supplies; so that in all things God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom belongs the glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.
