Refining Faith

02 26 I Peter 1.6-7 Peter encourages these believers in Asia Minor with some important reminders regarding their faith.  Faith is persecuted.  Faith is precious.  Faith is praised.  Our faith is strengthened through trials.  Even though there may be many different kinds, they are only temporary.  Instead of focusing on the trial, focus on the inheritance that is secure in heaven waiting for the believer.

God’s Presence, Our Peace

02 05 I Peter 1:2 Peace, God’s peace.  What does that look like?  Along with grace, Peter wants his audience to experience peace in abundance.  If Jesus wants us to take courage in the middle our storms and He is with us all the time, why do we doubt?  Why are we anxious?  Why do we fear?  Peace comes through absolute trust in the Lord at all times, even in our storms.  When God is present, He gives His peace.  Will you let Him give you His peace today?
