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) ESV.

Lord Jesus, I want to truly know you and have a fresh, new experience with you this week. Let my faith in you reflect a life of self-control, steadfastness, godliness and love as I walk in your divine love. May the people you bring into my path this week experience a touch of your love, grace and mercy. In Jesus' holy name I pray.
