Today's time being changed by the Word is in 1 Peter 3:1-12.
Lord,
Help me live today so that unbelievers around me see me enduring hardship the way Christ did and are "won over" to following Jesus (1). Help me see beauty in things like: purity, reverence for You, a gentle and quiet spirit, holiness, hope in God, doing good for others, and courage in Christ (2-6). Help me be compassionate and look out for those who can't look out for themselves (7). Make Your church unified in how it thinks, feels, loves, and submits to You and each other (8). You called me to suffer like Christ (2:21), You also called me to be a blessing to others (3:9). Help me speak blessings to others today.
