This is not our permanent home!

Living Set Apart in a Watching World

"Dear friends, I urge you, as foreigners and exiles, to abstain from sinful desires, which wage war against your soul. Live such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day he visits us.”
— 1 Peter 2:11–12 (NIV)

This world is not our home—we’re just passing through. As followers of Christ, we are called to live differently. Not in arrogance, but in humility. Not in compromise, but in conviction.

Peter reminds us: We’re exiles here. Our identity is not shaped by culture, trends, or public opinion, but by the heart of God. And while sinful desires may look tempting, they are waging war against our souls. The fight is real, but so is our purpose.

Here's the challenge:
Let your life preach the gospel before your words ever do. Let your love, your patience, your integrity, and your kindness speak volumes. When the world watches you, may they see Jesus.

Let’s live in such a way that even those who misunderstand or accuse us now, may one day come to glorify God because of the light they saw in us.

Stay faithful. Stay set apart. Stay rooted in Him.
