MAY 16 – BLESSING

May 16, 2019

5/16 1 Peter 3:9-11

9 Don’t repay evil for evil. Don’t retaliate with insults when people insult you. Instead, pay them back with a blessing. That is what God has called you to do, and he will grant you his blessing. 10 For the Scriptures say, “If you want to enjoy life and see many happy days, keep your tongue from speaking evil and your lips from telling lies. 11 Turn away from evil and do good. Search for peace, and work to maintain it.

BLESSING

Be a blessing. To those who mistreat you-bless them. To those who defeat you-bless them. Bless your family and your friends. Bless the immigrant. Be a blessing. You will discover that you yourself will be blessed. You be a blessing.
