2 Peter 1:3-8 His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires. For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

This life is a process. For Christians, everything we do should begin in faith and be culminated with love. In between, we grow in goodness, knowledge, self-control, perseverance, godliness and affection. Each trial we face and apply these attributes, we go a step further in becoming the people God designed us to be. Are you in a life struggle? Step up! Look for ways to implement these Godly principles. The outcome will lead you to a new spiritual level.

Father, Keep me focused on You and in Your Word. Don’t let me miss a step in the process You have intended for my growth. Lead me to new heights, topped off with more love! Amen
