And you are living stones that God is building into his spiritual temple. What’s more, you are his holy priests.
He did not retaliate when he was insulted,
Most important of all, continue to show deep love for each other, for love covers a multitude of sins.
Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour. 9Stand firm against him, and be strong in your faith.
Lord God my Father,
Use me to build your temple. Give me a kind heart that doesn’t need to have it’s way. Allow your Love to develop in me as you desire and protect me from evil.
In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
