1 Peter 5:6-11 (NIV) Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that
he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares
for you. Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a
roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the
faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is
undergoing the same kind of sufferings. And the God of all grace, who called you
to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will
himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast. To him be the power
for ever and ever. Amen.
Grateful

One of my favorite sections of scripture. Often times people will pull out just a verse or two from this section, which is OK, but I think does a little injustice to the whole idea. Humility, trust, vigilance, faithfulness, suffering and growth all go together.
Thanks for the reminder.
His bless you and your beloved ones, Mark.
God bless... That is.
