The Apostle Peter uses that very thought to sober his congregation and inspire them to make their lives count for something in the sight of God. “For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect” (1 Peter 1:18-19). Peter urged them to live as people who were on their way home to meet their real family of loved ones whose special family trait is purity.
As we reflect on our Saviour's sacrifice for us this Easter season, ponder these questions: Am I a good person? What does my life stand for? Am I leaving a legacy of purity for my loved ones? Will I be ashamed on that day when I meet my real family in Glory? Lord, by your Grace!
