Monday 1 John 2:27 But I have received You, Holy Spirit, and You live within me, so I don’t need anyone to teach me what is true. For You, Holy Spirit, teach me all things, and what You teach is true–it is not a lie. So I continue in what You have taught me, and I continue to live in You, Christ. Tuesday 1 John 2:28 And now I continue to live in fellowship with You, Christ, so that when You return, I will be full of courage and not shrink back from You in shame. Wednesday 1 John 2:29 Since I know that You, God, are always right, I also know that all who do what is right are Your children. Thursday 1 John 3:1 I see how very much You, my heavenly Father, love me, for You allow me to be called Your child, and I really am! But the people who belong to this world don’t know You, God, so they don’t understand that I am Your child. Friday 1 John 3:2,3 Yes, I am already Your child, God, and I can’t even imagine what I will be like when You, Christ, return. But I do know that when You come I will be like You, for I will see You as You really are. And all who believe this will keep themselves pure, just as You, Jesus, are pure. Zingers from Croft M.
