He [Peter] closes this section in 1 Peter (Chapter 4)....in verse 11, he says, "If anyone speaks, he should do it as one speaking the very words of God; if anyone serves he should do it with the strength God provides." Why? "So that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory and the power for ever and ever." Our practice must lead to praise, our work must culminate in worship so that in all things God receives the glory.
