"But you are a CHOSEN generation, a ROYAL priesthood, an HOLY nation, HIS OWN SPECIAl people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you OUT OF THE DARKNESS into HIS MARVELLOUS LIGHT;
"Who once were not a people but are now the PEOPLE OF GOD, who had not obtained mercy but now have OBTAINED MERCY"
Meditate and think about this.

Wonderful gifts from God in grace that Peter points to us! As it has been well said in a spiritual song:
Oh! wondrous, infinite, divine!
Keep near, my soul, to that blest place,
Where all those heavenly glories shine
Which suit the brightness of His face!
because in Christ we have been admitted to the very presence of God.
Wonderful affirmation...and good to be reminded that we are ROYAL!!! We are Ambassadors of Christ in this world as well. It's interesting to read what an Ambassador is.
What a wonderful reality as well to know that we Christians are Temples of the Holy Spirit. What a grand responsibility we have been given. May we live accordingly.
That was some thoughts that came to me after reading this. Thank-you and keep up this good blog! I love it!
