But now you must be holy in everything you do, just as God who chose you is holy. For the Scriptures say, "You must be holy because I am holy." And remember that the heavenly Father to whom you pray has no favorites. He will judge or reward you according to what you do. So you must live in reverent fear of Him during your time as "foreigners in the land."
Lord, my prayer is that Your Holy Spirit will continue to remind me of all that You taught and will continue to guide me into a life of holiness. Not a life of sanctimony and legality. Not a life characterized by an attitude of "holier than thou" but a life that seeks to live out Your love in a way that reveals You.
