SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY 1 PETER 3:1-7

Wives and Husbands

¹ In the same way, you wives should yield to your husbands. Then, if some husbands do not obey God's teaching, they will be persuaded to believe without anyone's saying a word to them. They will be persuaded by the way their wives live.² Your husbands will see the pure lives you live with your respect for God.³ It is not fancy hair, gold jewelry, or fine clothes that should make you beautiful.⁴ No, your beauty should come from within you—the beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit that will never be destroyed and is very precious to God.⁵ In this same way the holy women who lived long ago and followed God made themselves beautiful, yielding to their own husbands.⁶ Sarah obeyed Abraham, her husband, and called him her master. And you women are true children of Sarah if you always do what is right and are not afraid.

⁷ In the same way, you husbands should live with your wives in an understanding way, since they are weaker than you. But show them respect, because God gives them the same blessing he gives you—the grace that gives true life. Do this so that nothing will stop your prayers.

I WISH YOU A DAY FILLED WITH LOVE, LAUGHTER, FORGIVENESS AND THANKSGIVING-JASPER
