Resting In God's Protection

Over the past few weeks we have talked about living the good life as it is presented to us in 1 Peter 3:8-12.

We have seen that even Christians who are being persecuted can live the good life because of the blessings that they have in Christ; because of the instruction they have in Scripture; and because of the promises that they have from God. As we walk with the Lord He promises to keep His eyes on us and His ears are tuned in to our prayers.

God also promises that His face is against those who do evil. Those who would persecute us or be hostile to us will find God in opposition to them. We can rest in God’s protection.

That is a good life. I don’t need to worry, just rest in Him.
