Verse of the Day
One verse, a short reflection and a prayer — the same verse for everyone today.
A chosen generation
“But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:”
Today's insight
You are not left to wonder who you are or what your life is for. God calls you "a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people," claiming you as His own prized possession. He has delivered you "out of darkness into his marvellous light" so that your everyday life can openly "shew forth the praises" of the One who redeemed you.
Reflect
How can your words and actions today display the goodness of the God who called you into His marvellous light?
Prayer
Lord, thank You for choosing me and bringing me out of darkness into Your marvellous light. Help me to remember who I am in You and give me the grace to show forth Your praises in all I do today. Amen.
