Omnipotent Moral Busybodies

1 Peter 5:6-11
"...God is opposed to the proud, 
but gives grace to the humble.


Therefore humble yourselves 
under the mighty hand of God, 
that He may exalt you at the 
proper time, casting all your 
anxiety on Him, because He 
cares for you.

Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. 
Your adversary, the devil, prowls 
around like a roaring lion, seeking 
someone to devour.

But resist him, firm in your faith, 
knowing that the same experiences 
of suffering are being accomplished 
by your brethren who are in the world.

After you have suffered for a little while, 
the God of all grace, who called you 
to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself 
perfect, confirm, strengthen and establish you.

To Him be dominion forever and ever. Amen..."
