Scripture Verse Number 5

Here's the next verse in my quest to memorize 2 verses of Scripture each month this year.  I love this Scripture because it tells us we can participate in the divine nature.  Of course, I like the idea of escaping the corruption of the world, too!

"His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature and escape the corruption in the world caused by evil desires."  2 Peter 1:3-4 (NIV)
