Petra's Projects

PetraBorchert@gmail.com: So roll up your sleeves, put your mind in gear, be totally ready to receive the gift that’s coming when Jesus arrives. Don’t lazily slip back into those old grooves of evil, doing just what you feel like doing. You didn’t know any better then; you do now…Let yourselves be pulled into a way of life shaped by God’s life, a life energetic & blazing with holiness. God said, “I am holy; you be holy.” You call out to God for help & he helps—he’s a good Father that way… He’s also a responsible Father, & won’t let you get by with sloppy living. Your life is a journey you must travel with a deep consciousness of God… He paid with Christ’s sacred blood… He died like an unblemished, sacrificial lamb. & this was no afterthought. …God always knew he was going to do this for you. It’s because of this sacrificed Messiah, whom God then raised from the dead & glorified, that you trust God, that you know you have a future in God. Now that you’ve cleaned up your lives by following the truth, love one another as if your lives depended on it. Your new life is not like your old life. Your … new birth comes from God’s living Word. Just think: a life conceived by God himself! 1 Peter 1:13-25 (MSG)
