Living in Hope

Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you. (1 Peter 5:6-7) Gaining humility, it seems, is like trying to hold water in your hands. While you can do it for a few seconds, it seems to seep out quickly. This week, as we close our series in 1 Peter, we will examine this important quality. It is one that was modeled by Jesus and to which we are called. But what does it look like? And how is it attained? Is it just having poor self-esteem or is it something else? Take some time to reread 1 Peter 5 to prepare your heart and mind.
