Hey, friends, I wonder, do you like football? Do you like basketball? Do you like the kind of sports where a team works together to make progress and achieve a goal?

Today we're going to talk about a kind of teamwork that happens between us and God, where God, like alignment in football perhaps, guards

us like alignment would guard a quarterback. He guards us in this life and in our journey of

faith. Welcome to the morning mindset. Today we're going to get our minds aligned with the truth

of God's word by reading through 1 1 Peter chapter 1 verses 3 through 5.

So if you have a Bible, please take it out.

If you have a Morning Mindset Journal, you could use that to take notes as well.

And friends of you would like to find out more about the Morning Mindset Journal.

It's just a little tool I've created to help people kind of organize their thoughts,

nothing fancy, really simple.

You can find out more by going

to morning mindsetmedia.com slash journal. That link will also be in the description for this episode.

Okay, friends, before we dig into 1st Peter chapter 1, I want us to pray again that the Lord

God in heaven will give us his great grace as we discover what He has to say to us today.

So Lord, help us, give us your insight, give us your understanding, Lord.

We ask you to do this in Jesus' name, amen.

Okay, friends, 1 Peter chapter 1 verses 3 through 5.

Now listen to me for a moment.

As we get into this, remember that illustration I gave you at the beginning of God serving,

kind of like alignment, guarding us as we go through this life.

Keep that in mind as we read 1st Peter 1 3 through 5.

It says, bless be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
