ee_Living_the_hope1 PeterLesson 11: Hope-fully

13Therefore,
preparing your minds for action, and being sober-minded, set
your hope fully on the grace that will
be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ. 14As
obedient children, do not be conformed to the passions
of your former ignorance, 15but as he who called
you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, 16since
it is
written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.” 17And
if you call on him as Father who judges impartially according
to each one’s deeds, conduct yourselves with fear throughout
the time of your exile,
         1 Peter
1:13-17

down,

down,

arise,
 Christ in the heart of
every man who thinks of me,

 Christ in the mouth of
every one who speaks of me,

 Christ in the eye of
every one who sees me,

 Christ in every ear
that hears me.
