Therefore, with minds that are alert and fully sober, set your hope on the grace to be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed at his coming. As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance. But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; for it is written: "Be holy, because I am holy." (1Peter 1:13-15)

아버지, 얼마나 오랜 시간을 무지속에서 살았는지요. 나의 눈을 뜨게 하시니 감사합니다. 당신을 알게 하시니 감사합니다. 여전히 저를 억누르고 있는 옛습성들을 극복하길 기도합니다. 매순간 믿음으로 반응하고 결단하길 기도합니다. 매일 저를 말씀으로 깨우시고 말씀으로 붙들어주세요.
