Love God Greatly - 1 & 2 Peterনমুনা

Peter lists spiritual characteristics that will develop in a Christian as she experiences God’s divine nature. Faith, goodness, knowledge, self-control, perseverance, godliness, brotherly kindness, and love. Each characteristic builds on the other beginning with our foundation of faith in Jesus Christ and ending with the love of God at the top. Peter writes that all diligence must be given to this Christian development. A believer must strive to add these Christ-like qualities to her life through the guidance and leading of the Holy Spirit.

Which characteristics have you been struggling to assimilate into your life? Will you pray today and ask for God’s hand and leading in growing you spiritually each day?
