After taking a look at the history of the Samaritans, we see how important Jesus' ministry to the Samaritan woman at the well truly was. There is plenty to draw from this story when we think about our own relationship with Jesus and our mission of sharing Jesus with those around us.

We are exhorted by Peter to not allow the world to dictate to us, its sense of right and wrong. We are to submit to the Lordship of our perfect Leader, Jesus, who set an example of surrendering our personal rights. We are Called to a Higher Code of Conduct.

Jesus, the Cornerstone has chosen us to be living stones, holy people and a royal priesthood, for the purpose of making Him known. He has brought us out of darkness into His marvelous light and we must take His light and hope to those who are still live in darkness.

We can completely trust God and His Word. If we choose to live holy lives according to God's Word and walk in the fear of the Lord, He can and will refine our character and behavior, which will reflect His image.

Learning to be thankful for everything God has given us, whether we are on the mountain top or in a low valley. God always sees the big picture, even when we can only see our present situation.

Three powerful truths about how God wants to work through our prayers. 

By Jenny Nipper

In Matthew 15:21-28 we are given an example of how to pray. These verses encourage us to come boldly, honestly and persistently to the Lord with our petitions, as seen through the prayer of a Canaanite woman, on behalf of her demon-possessed daughter. The Lord honored her prayer of faith and will honors ours, as we faithfully come asking Him to answer our petitions for His name sake.

1 Peter is primarily a letter of hope and of second and third chances. In the midst of suffering and pain that attempts to derail us, Peter provides a letter of triumphant hope and faith.
