Grow in Grace
2 Peter Chapter 3 verse 18
“Grow in grace
and in the knowledge
of our LORD
and Saviour Jesus Christ”.
*****
One of the best ways to grow in grace and knowledge of God is to read The Bible> Getting things second hand is not a good idea and really dosn’t get us very far. So…..if you are not reading your Bible, Today is a very good time to start.
However if you are reading your Bible daily, then I pray that you will continue to grow in the knowledge and grace of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen.
The above is from the book ‘Drink from the Cup’ by: J.M.R. Larman.

The rest of verse eightteen says … To Him be Glory both now and forever! Amen.
So that should make us think – what are we doing even today to give God our Father in Heaven any Glory.
Well what can I do? Not too sure about that – I could try to be good! (Well there is always hope!) I could be nice to some one. I could tell someone about the Gospel of Jesus. I could phone or write to someone to bless them if they have been waiting a long time for me to keep in touch. I could cook someone a nice meal…..we are supposed to show hospitality to people especially if we do happen to be a Christian.
All the above would give Glory to God if we actually manage to do any of them.
One of the best things I suppose is to make sure that we read something in the Holy Bible each day. It does not have to take long even a few minutes would be better than none at all.
Best of all is to have a special time to sit with God each day – to read His word and thank Him for the Salvation that Jesus has allowed us to have.
Let us soar on Eagles Wings to Heavenly places while we sit and pray – especially The Lords Prayer – I am sure that would be acceptable to God if you are not sure how else to pray.
* May you Grow in Grace each day as you sit with our God *
Amen.
