Because Of Love

Canon EOS 350D, f/8, 1/30 sec

"All of you, be humble in your dealings with each other, because God opposes the proud but give His grace to the humble.

"Bow down, then, before the power of God so that He will raise you up at the appointed time. Place all your worries on Him since He takes care of you.

"Be sober and alert because your enemy the devil prowls about like a roaring lion seeking someone to devour. Stand your ground, firm in your faith, knowing that our brothers and sisters, scattered throughout the world, are confronting similar persecutions. God, the giver of all grace, has called you to share in Christ's eternal Glory and after you have suffered a little be firm, strengthen and establish you forever. Glory be to Him forever and ever. Amen.

"I have had these few lines of encouragement written to you by Silvanus, our brother, whom I know to be trustworthy. For I wanted to remind you all the kindness of God really present in all this. Hold on to it.

"Greetings from the community in Babylon, gathered by God, and from my son, Mark.

"Greet one another with a friendly embrace. Peace to you all who are in Christ."

1 PETER 5:5b-14

"Give me Your heart, O Lord, so that I may still love
despite all the imperfections around me and within me."
