And this same also — all diligence having brought in besides, superadd in your faith the worthiness, and in the worthiness the knowledge, and in the knowledge the temperance, and in the temperance the endurance, and in the endurance the piety, and in the piety the brotherly kindness, and in the brotherly kindness the love; for these things being to you and abounding, do make [you] neither inert nor unfruitful in regard to the acknowledging of our Lord Jesus Christ, for he with whom these things are not present is blind, dim-sighted, having become forgetful of the cleansing of his old sins; wherefore, the rather, brethren, be diligent to make stedfast your calling and choice, for these things doing, ye may never stumble, for so, richly shall be superadded to you the entrance into the age-during reign of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

Shortly after writing his first letter, Peter hears word of false teaching spreading amongst the churches in Asia Minor.

Gratitude is an attitude of the heart. To be grateful, we must first be aware of what we have received or what we have been kept from. Lack of gratitude often comes from a selfish heart and, thus, a disordered love of self. Looking back to Jesus, to his cross, and to all that he has done for us is crucial to living each day in gratitude.
