Devotional Reflection

LoveJoyPeaceGratitudeHopeCompassionAweContentment

We know that God is the only one who has perfect righteousness and holiness. Amazingly, God uses His Spirit to make these things more and more true in our lives when we let Him lead. Yesterday, we agreed to let the Spirit help us grow in the areas where we are weakest. Let's take five or ten extra minutes today, open God's Word, and read a few passages that apply to our particular weaknesses. Then, let's ask God's Spirit to make us more like Christ in these ways.

Prayer

Dear Father, may Jesus come soon in grace and glory! May I be found blameless on that day, dear Father, not because of what I do or how hard I try, but because Your power to change me is at work in me. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
