Thoughts on Today’s Verse
In this passage, Peter has built up the picture of a believer whose life is honouring to God. We are to grow in grace through the nourishment of the Word of God and, as living stones, are to be built up into a holy nation, a spiritual house, and a holy priesthood that is honouring to God. Our lives are not to mimic the unruly behaviours of evil-doers but to be a light to glorify the Father and to point others to our Lord Jesus Christ.
In His life, Christ submitted to the leading of the Holy Spirit and did only those things that pleased and honoured the Father. In the same way, rulers and subjects, servants and masters, children and parents, husbands and wives, are all to conduct themselves in a manner that is well-pleasing to God in thought, word, and deed – with patient endurance and a graciousness of spirit.
