1 Peter 1:1-5 Embracing Our Exile
When we embrace our identity as Christian exiles, we experience the living hope of Christ.
Reflections:
Are you comfortable with seeing yourself as an exile? Why or why not?
What happens to our priorities when we are willing to identify ourselves as exiles and our relationship with Jesus as our ultimate identity?
Do we allow the brokenness of the world in which we live to discourage us? What would Peter have us focus on to overcome that discouragement?
