Everywhere we go we see increased signs of security: armed guards, metal detectors and cameras. And yet, our society never feels fully protected. Peter reminds the exiled, the persecuted and the oppressed that although we might not “see” it, God’s might holds us and protects us. His care and security never fail.
Grounded – to a teen it means you can’t go out. To a pilot it means you can’t take off. To a Christian grounded means, regardless of circumstance, we continue in our faith, established and firm, never moving from the hope of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. As we turn our attention towards the Book of 1 Peter, our goal is just that – to get grounded.
