August 11 - Holiness

 

“Make every effort to live in peace

with all men and to be holy;

without holiness no one will see the Lord.”

(Hebrews 12:14 NIV)

 

To be holy is to be set apart from impurity to God. His complete moral perfection should move me to strive for moral purity. I must be self-controlled and set my hope fully on the grace of God. He will help me to live in peace with everyone. I will push away all selfish thoughts and ask for forgiveness and renewal in my heavenly Father’s kingdom. I hope you will, too!
