Mind
So prepare your minds for service and have self-control. All your hope should be for the gift of grace that will be yours when Jesus Christ is shown to you.
1 Peter 1:13 (New Century Version)
So think clearly and exercise self-control. Look forward to the gracious salvation that will come to you when Jesus Christ is revealed to the world.
1 Peter 1:13 (New Living Translation)
So roll up your sleeves, put your mind in gear, be totally ready to receive the gift that’s coming when Jesus arrives.
1 Peter 1:13 (The Message)
I need to remember this, too often I am disappointed with the things of this world or upset that things don’t go a certain way for me.
This really lets you know your work here will not be in vain and gives more hope to keep on serving cheerfully.
