Live each day carefully
Today's word: 1 Peter 1:13-17
13Therefore, prepare your minds for action; be self-controlled; set your hope fully on the grace to be given you when Jesus Christ is revealed. 14As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance. 15But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; 16for it is written: "Be holy, because I am holy."[a]
Are you careless about the things you do or the words you say? Consider each day a gift from God. Live it carefully. You can't go back and change anything. You can, however apologize to someone you may have hurt. Do that if you need to. Be able to look back on each day knowing you've done what you should.
To memorize: Psalm 90:12
Teach us to number our days aright,
that we may gain a heart of wisdom
