Grace for your spirit January 15, 2014

Grace for your spirit
Honor all people, love the brotherhood, fear God, honor the king. I Peter 2:17

These words were originally written to a first century church that was under extreme persecution by the Roman government, false teachers, and a church suffering apostasy,  With such difficulties, one might be want to isolate themselves, and blame all their opponents.  Things haven't changed much.  In our world Christians often want to blame the world, the church, the government, and even God for all our ills. Perhaps our relief is not in blaming and criticizing, but in loving, and honoring.  Let's try it God's way and pray for our adversaries.
