Text: First Peter 4, 7-11.[1]

7 But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore of sound mind,

and be sober unto prayer: 8 above all things being fervent in your

love among yourselves: for love covereth a multitude of sins: 9 using

hospitality one to another without murmuring: 10 according as each

hath received a gift, ministering it among yourselves, as good

stewards of the manifold grace of God; 11 if any man speaketh,

speaking as it were oracles of God; if any man ministereth,

ministering as of the strength which God supplieth: that in all things

God may be glorified through Jesus Christ, whose is the glory and the

dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
