There are sooo many frigging cool things in the bible. One's that help us to obtain more grace and peace in our lives.. Alot of times we think that oh that is only because he was Elijah, Moses, Peter, Paul, David.......... that is/was why God did those such things in their lives.. I was blown away by this today.
2Pe 1:1 Simeon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who have obtained a faith of equal standing with ours by the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ:
2Pe 1:2 May grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.
Peter says it right here. He is only a servant of Christ. He says in his letter, WE ALL IN CHRIST HAVE RECEIVED A EQUAL STANDING BY THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF Jesus. Jesus' blood makes us all on the same level. WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW... That is NUTS!
This past week I was told that you need a balance in your life of how much time to spend with God. My heart did not feel right with that. It was someone in authority who said that to me. In my heart I wanted to lash out because I was told I cannot depend 100 percent on God for my joy and happiness... Peter says it right here! IT IS IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF OUR God and of our Lord Jesus we may obtain more grace and peace...
I think this means we NEED TO fight the good fight. Make sure we can spend time with God. SEEK HIM SEEK HIM SEEK HIM

Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize? Run in such a way as to get the prize. Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last; but we do it to get a crown that will last forever. Therefore I do not run like a man running aimlessly; I do not fight like a man beating the air. No, I beat my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize.
