Devotional – May 1, 2011

VERSE:
2 Corinthians 13:11–Finally brethren, rejoice, be made complete, be comforted, be like-minded, live in peace; and the God of love and peace will be with you.

TRUTH:
All that we need and all that we are should be found in Christ. His love and peace through us can help us to rejoice, be made complete, and all those other characteristics listed above. It’s a circle; if we follow His commands to rejoice, be made complete, and the others, then we’ll experience more and more of the love and peace of Christ. That will then help us to rejoice more.

RESPONSE:
Lord, thank You for providing us with everything we need and for completing us in every way. I pray You will help me to experience more of Your love and peace through You today.
