A COST FOR ACTIONS AND INACTIONS

Father, I give you all the praise for another day that was not promised. I’m also beyond grateful for second chances to turn my wrongs into rights.

“For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge, and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with steadfastness, and steadfastness with godliness, and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love. For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they keep you from being ineffective or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.” 2 Peter 1:5-8
