Turning Evil into Good
You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives.—Genesis 50:20 (NIV) Bib
But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory, both now and to the day of eternity. Amen.—2 Peter 3:18 (ESV)
Peter is a great example of how the Holy Spirit can change a person. We grow spiritually when we learn to remove ourselves from the spotlight and shine it on others. The Holy Spirit filled Peter with understanding of God’s Word and courage to follow His plan.
Holy Spirit, I am ready to serve. Fill me with Your power and insight. Change me for the better!
