8 July 2010 - 2 Peter 1:3-11

"His divine power has given us everything we need"
"For life and godliness through our knowledge of him" indeed
He called us through his goodness and glory
To escape the world's evil desires and actions gory
He has given us promises precious and great
So in His divine nature we may participate
For this reason add goodness to your faith
And knowledge to your goodness verse 5 sayeth
Then come self-control, perseverance, and godliness
Love is the pinnacle, building on brotherly kindness
"For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure"
They will allow you to receive God's eternal treasure
"But if anyone does not have them, he is nearsighted and blind"
That "he has been cleansed from his past sins" has slipped from his mind
"Be all the more eager to make your calling and election sure"
For if you do, you will be welcomed into heaven for sure

What else is there to say?
This is what I must do today
Thank God for His great mercies
And focus on the those qualities
