Scripture Reading

2 Peter 3:18

But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the glory both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.
Reflection
Growth is assumed here, not optional. The Christian life is not about arriving at a fixed point and maintaining it — it is about continual deepening. Grace is not just the entry point of faith; it is the environment in which we grow. What does growth look like for you right now? A habit of prayer, a relationship to repair, a fear to release? That is where growth is happening.
Prayer for Today
"Father, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins have separated me from you. I am truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from my past sinful life toward you. Please forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again. I believe that your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer. I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward. Please send your Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to do Your will for the rest of my life. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen."

Amen.
