Many times throughout Scripture, the narrative inspired by the Holy Spirit depicts certain aspects of the Christian life as steps or desired outcomes that can only be obtained through the work of the indwelling Spirit that lives in each one of us. Compared to other religions that give direction as to how to earn one’s ultimate goal in this life, we are asked only to seek or strive to know the Kingdom of God and his righteousness, and everything else will be given to us – including his perfect peace and amazing grace.
The truth of God’s Word to reflect on:
“May God give you more and more grace and peace as you grow in your knowledge of God and Jesus our Lord.” 2 Peter 1:2
