Read 1 Peter 1-4

“As obedient children, do not be conformed to the former lusts which were yours in your ignorance,” 1 Peter 1:14

Peter’s Letters are another place in my Bible reading where you can just camp out and fill yourself to the brim! There is SO much to comment on, it’s hard to know what to choose. Nevertheless, today’s verse begs the question, “does this describe me”?”

1st, am I an Obedient Child? Obedience implies knowing what my Father requires. Do I know His Word well enough to know that this describes me? 2nd, am I still Conformed to Former Lusts? Do they still control my life and behavior? My thoughts; My Heart?

These are not options from Peter, but an Apostolic Command. May God make it so!!!
