"But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue, to virtue knowledge, to knowledge self-control, to self-control perseverance, to perseverance godliness, to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness love. For if these things are yours and abound, you will be neither barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. For he who lacks these things is shortsighted, even to blindness, and has forgotten that he was cleansed from his old sins. Therefore, brethren, be even more diligent to make your call and election sure, for if you do these things you will never stumble; for so an entrance will be supplied to you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ."
(2 Peter 1:5-11)
Be always diligent to do what you were called to do, to obey God and study the Word, and you will never, ever stumble! How assuring is that? If we do those things, we won't fail, but we will be rewarded abundantly the everlasting kingdom of our Lord -- Heaven! That makes life SO worth the living!!
Have a blessed night!
