daily prayer

     Good Friday morning!  How are we faithing? I had a wonderful conversation with an old friend yesterday who happens to be a brand new Daddy.  Listening to him describe the birth and all the new things he is experiencing made my memory open up to that time when I went through all those wonderful things with my kids. There's really nothing that compares the that love.  With that in mind it makes us realize how much God loves us that he would allow his son to die for us. I couldn't let my kids die for you.  Wow. That being said it makes me realize that I have misspoke before when I said that we are not worthy of this grace. Let me explain that statement. While it is true we cannot do anything to earn the grace of God we are worthy in his eyes or he would not have made the sacrifice for us. Do you see the difference? He loves us enough and he sees us as worthy of his sacrifice to save us and it is not anything we did or have done. Now that is a love bigger than anything in this world.


 Joh 3:14-17
  And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:  That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.  For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

Heavenly Father,
  Thank you for your sacrifice for us. Lord forgive us our sins and let your spirit dwell in us.  Lord we lift those mentioned up to you this day. Heal hearts, minds and spirits. Let them be keenly aware of your presence in their lives.  Guide our paths and protect our minds from attacks from the enemy. In Jesus name, amen
