March 28th 2025 – Come Home to Grace

“But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him.” (Luke 15:20)

In the parable of the Prodigal Son, we see a beautiful picture of grace. The younger son, having squandered his inheritance on reckless living, finds himself alone and destitute. Yet, in his moment of desperation, he remembers his father’s house—a place where there is love, acceptance, and provision.

How often do we stray from the path God has laid out for us? Life’s temptations can lead us far from home, leaving us feeling lost and unworthy. We may think that we’ve gone too far, that our mistakes have disqualified us from grace. But the good news is that God’s grace is greater than our failures.

As the son made his way back, his father, who had been waiting and watching, didn’t stand with arms crossed, filled with anger or disappointment. Instead, he ran to his son, embracing him with love and forgiveness. This is the heart of our Heavenly Father—always ready to receive us with open arms, no matter how far we’ve wandered.

Take a moment to reflect on your own journey. Are there areas in your life where you feel distant from God? Picture Him waiting for you, ready to welcome you back. Write down any thoughts or feelings that come to mind, and consider how you can take steps to come back to Him. Remember, it’s never too late to come home to grace.

“In every season of life, God’s grace is a constant. No matter our past, we can always start anew. Let us come home to grace, where love reigns, and our hearts find true rest.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of grace that calls us home. Help us to remember that no matter how far we stray, we can always return to You. May we find solace in Your embrace and reassurance in Your love. Teach us to extend that same grace to others, reflecting Your heart in our interactions. Thank You for always waiting for us with open arms. In Jesus’ name, we pray, Amen.

March 11th 2025 – Jesus Paid the Price

“Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying: ‘Take the gift from the captives—from Heldai, Tobijah, and Jedaiah, who have come from Babylon—and go the same day to the house of Josiah the son of Zephaniah.’” (Zechariah 6:9-10)

In our lives, we have all experienced captivity in one form or another. Many of us still find ourselves bound, not necessarily as prisoners or slaves in the conventional sense, but as captives to our own sins.

As stated in John 8:34-35, “Jesus answered them, ‘Most assuredly, I say to you, whoever commits sin is a slave of sin.’”

Being enslaved by sin is perilous, often because those who are shackled may not even recognize their bondage. Some might even come to accept their captivity as normal. This illusion can lead to a life filled with pain and despair—yet there is hope. Jesus Christ entered this world to declare freedom for those held captive by sin. With His final breath on the cross, He rendered the chains of sin powerless. If we turn to Jesus, seeking His forgiveness and the freedom He provides, He will offer us the key to unlock our chains and empower us to live abundantly.

“God desires to liberate you from your sin and bless you with a fulfilling life.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I acknowledge that I have been ensnared by my sins. Please forgive me and release me from these chains. I believe that Jesus is the key to my freedom, and I trust in His sacrifice on the cross for my sins. Fill me with Your Spirit and guide me to share this key to freedom with others. Set me free from the slavery of sin. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Put your faith and trust in Jesus! If you do not know him personally please read below.

Jesus Christ says, “Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him” (Revelation 3:20)

The Bible promises eternal life to all who receive Christ: “God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He who has the Son has the life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have the life. I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life” (1 John 5:11-13)

If you have not asked Jesus into your life you can receive Jesus Christ right now by faith through prayer.

Prayer is just talking with God. He knows your heart, so don’t worry about getting your words just right. Here is a suggested prayer to guide you:

Lord Jesus, I want to know you personally. Thank you for dying on the cross for my sins. I open the door of my life and receive you as my Savior and Lord. Thank you for forgiving me of my sins and giving me eternal life. Take control of my life. Make me the kind of person You want me to be.

!If you have read this prayer and believed in your heart, then congratulations!

(Luke 15:7) says that when one sinner accepts Jesus Christ as his or her Savior the angels rejoice. So there’s a party going on in heaven right now over your decision! Remember this date as your “second birthday,” the day you were born into a new life in Christ! You have God’s Word that he answered your prayer.

March 10th 2025 – Grip of Grace

“If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.” (1 John 1:8-10)

We often perceive grace as a single event, a moment when we first recognize our need for God’s mercy. However, if grace were only a one-time occurrence, we would find ourselves in a precarious position. The truth is that the grace of God is essential for us each day of our lives. We are reminded that the mercy of the Lord endures forever. This enduring mercy means it will never diminish or become exhausted.

Looking at the life of Peter, we see a profound example of human frailty and divine forgiveness. Peter, despite his failures and denials, found redemption and purpose in Christ. This serves as a powerful reminder for us: we often write ourselves off, but God sees us differently. There is no one beyond the reach of His grace. Just as Peter was forgiven and restored, so too are we, regardless of our missteps. Though we may stumble and fall, we can take comfort in knowing that we have constant access to His love and forgiveness. We live in the abundant embrace of His grace.

As Isaiah 1:18 beautifully declares, “Come now, and let us reason together,” says the LORD, “Though your sins are like scarlet, They shall be as white as snow; Though they are red like crimson, They shall be as wool.” This is a promise of hope and renewal, assuring us that no matter how far we stray, we can always return to Him and be made whole again.

As followers of Jesus, we can be assured that we are forgiven for all our mistakes, and His grace is sufficient for every challenge we face.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I come before You with a heart full of gratitude for Your unending grace and mercy. Thank You for the gift of forgiveness, which cleanses me from all unrighteousness and allows me to stand before You without shame. I confess my sins and shortcomings, knowing that Your love covers all my failures. Help me to run to Your throne of grace often, seeking Your guidance and strength in every area of my life.

Lord, I ask for Your help in overcoming the obstacles that hinder my spiritual journey. Fill me with Your Holy Spirit, so that I may walk in Your ways and reflect Your love to those around me. May I never forget the depth of Your grace and the power it holds to transform my life.

In moments of doubt or struggle, remind me of Your promises and the example of those like Peter who found redemption. Help me to remember that I am never beyond the reach of Your love. Thank You for embracing me as Your child and for the hope that comes from knowing I am forgiven. I pray this in Jesus’s name, Amen.

August 11th 2023 – Sharing and Giving Selflessly

In our journey as followers of Christ, it is essential to recognize the incredible gift we have received through His love and grace. As Christians, we have been blessed with forgiveness, salvation, and a personal relationship with our Savior. This life-changing experience is something that should never be taken for granted.

However, it is equally important to understand that our blessings are not meant to be hoarded or kept to ourselves. Instead, we are called to pay it forward and bless others with the love and kindness that we have received. This act of selfless giving not only impacts the lives of those in need but also serves as a reflection of our gratitude towards God.

In 2 Corinthians 9:7, we are reminded that “Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.” This verse emphasizes the importance of giving with a joyful and willing heart, rather than out of obligation or duty. When we give selflessly, we emulate the character of Christ and becwwwome vessels of His love in the world.

John 13:34-35 “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples if you love one another.”

In these words, Jesus not only emphasizes the importance of love but also sets a high standard for how we are to love others. He instructs us to love as He has loved us, which is a selfless, sacrificial, and unconditional love.

Moreover, Matthew 25:40 teaches us the significance of recognizing the presence of Christ in those who are marginalized or in need. Jesus says, “Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.” This powerful statement reminds us that our acts of compassion towards others are, in fact, acts of service to God Himself. When we extend a helping hand, lend a listening ear, or offer our resources to those in need, we are demonstrating our love for Christ and fulfilling His call to love our neighbors as ourselves.

Therefore, let us embrace the opportunity to share and give selflessly. Let us seek out ways to bless others, not only in material ways but also through our time, talents, and genuine care. Whether it is supporting a local charity, volunteering at a homeless shelter, or simply showing kindness to a stranger, every effort counts.

In doing so, we not only make a difference in the lives of those we touch but also experience the joy and fulfillment that comes from living out our faith. Let us remember that our purpose as Christians is not only to receive but also to give and share the love of Christ with others. May we be known as a people who recognize the presence of Christ in those who are marginalized or in need, and who respond with compassion, generosity, and a heart that seeks to bless others.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, Thank you for the countless blessings you have bestowed upon us. As we come before you today, we humbly ask for your guidance and strength to embody the spirit of selfless sharing and giving.

Lord, you have shown us the ultimate example of selflessness through the gift of your Son, Jesus Christ. He gave His life as a sacrifice for our sins, displaying a love beyond measure. Teach us to emulate His selflessness in our own lives.

Help us to put the needs of others before our own, to be willing to share what we have, and to give without expecting anything in return. Open our eyes to the opportunities around us, that we may recognize the needs of those who are less fortunate and extend a helping hand.

Lord, we pray for a heart that is generous and compassionate, that we may always be willing to give of our time, resources, and talents. May we never hold back in sharing the blessings you have entrusted to us, knowing that everything we have comes from your loving hand.

Grant us wisdom in discerning where our giving can make the greatest impact, that we may be good stewards of the gifts you have given us. Help us to seek out those who are overlooked or forgotten, and to extend a loving hand to them.

Father, we ask that you transform our hearts to be filled with joy and gratitude in our acts of selfless giving. May we find fulfillment and purpose in sharing with others, knowing that we are fulfilling your commandments and spreading your love.

In all that we do, may our actions reflect your love and grace. May we be a living testimony of your selfless love, so that others may be drawn closer to you.

We offer this prayer in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, Amen!

July 21st 2023 – Choosing God Over the World

In our journey of faith, we are constantly faced with choices that can either draw us closer to God or lead us away from Him. The apostle John, in his first letter, reminds us of the importance of choosing God over the world. In 1st John 2:15-17, he highlights three specific areas where we often find ourselves tempted: the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life.

1 John 2:15-17 – “Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them. For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever.”

The “lust of the flesh” refers to our desires for physical pleasure and satisfaction that can easily lead us astray. It encompasses anything that appeals to our sinful nature, such as indulging in unhealthy habits, seeking instant gratification, or pursuing selfish desires without considering the consequences. When we prioritize these worldly cravings, we distance ourselves from the love of the Father.

Similarly, the “lust of the eyes” speaks to our longing for material possessions, wealth, and worldly success. Our society bombards us with messages that equate happiness with accumulation and consumption. However, John reminds us that these desires are fleeting and ultimately unfulfilling. True contentment and eternal satisfaction can only be found in our relationship with God.

Lastly, John warns against the “pride of life,” which encompasses the pursuit of personal status, recognition, and power. It is the tendency to exalt ourselves above others and place our own will and desires above God’s. This prideful attitude can lead us down a path of self-centeredness and arrogance, hindering our ability to fully surrender to God’s plan for our lives.

As believers, we are called to be set apart from the world and to live in accordance with God’s will. We should not conform to the patterns and values of this world but rather seek to align ourselves with the teachings of Jesus Christ. By choosing God over the world, we can experience the abundant life that He promises us.

Let us remember that the world and its desires are temporary, passing away like the fading flowers. But whoever does the will of God lives forever. Our Heavenly Father’s love is eternal, unwavering, and surpasses any pleasure, possession, or power this world can offer. When we fix our eyes on Him, we find true joy, purpose, and fulfillment.

So today, let us take a moment to reflect on our own lives and identify areas where we may have been drawn towards the world rather than towards God. Let us ask for His forgiveness and seek His guidance to help us make choices that honor Him. May we be empowered by the Holy Spirit to resist worldly temptations and choose the path that leads us closer to our loving Creator.

Remember, you are never alone in your journey of faith. Lean on God’s wisdom and seek guidance from fellow believers as you navigate the choices before you. May your heart be filled with God’s love and your steps be guided by His truth. God bless you abundantly!

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, we thank You for Your Word that guides and instructs us. Help us, dear Lord, to discern the ways of the world and to choose You above all else. Forgive us for the times we have allowed worldly desires to take precedence over our love for You. Fill our hearts with a deep longing for You and grant us the strength to walk in obedience to Your will. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

Have you ever eacknowledged Jesus as you Lord and Savior?

If you do not know Him personally. I encourage you not to pass up the precious gift of His love and eternal life. We truly are living in the end days, a d the only road to Heavwn is through Jesus Christ. Jesus died on the cross for you and me. Jesus loves us and wants to help us through the storms.

July 9th 2023 – God’s Compassion and Power to Heal

Today, let’s reflect on the profound gift of healing that our Lord has bestowed upon us. Throughout the pages of the Bible, we witness countless examples of God’s compassion and power to heal the brokenness in our lives. It is through His grace and love that we find restoration, both in body and spirit.

Isaiah 53:5 – “But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed.”

In the book of Isaiah, we are reminded that it is the Lord who heals our diseases and binds up our wounds. His divine touch brings forth miraculous healing, mending the deepest pains and restoring us to wholeness. It is through His Son, Jesus Christ, that we find ultimate healing, for He bore our sins and infirmities on the cross, offering us redemption and eternal life.

As followers of Christ, we are called to not only seek healing for ourselves but to also become vessels of His healing for others. We are encouraged to extend the love and compassion of Jesus to those who are hurting and broken, just as He did during His earthly ministry. Through prayer, laying on of hands, and speaking words of encouragement, we have the privilege to participate in the healing work of our Lord.

However, we must also recognize that healing does not always occur in the way we expect or desire. Sometimes, physical ailments persist, emotional wounds linger, and the answers to our prayers seem elusive. In these moments, we are called to trust in God’s sovereignty and wisdom. He alone knows what is best for us, and He promises to be with us in every season of life.

Even if complete physical healing is not granted in this earthly realm, we can find solace in the spiritual healing that God offers. His grace is sufficient to carry us through any affliction, providing comfort, peace, and strength. Through our trials, we are refined and transformed, drawing closer to God and becoming more like His Son, Jesus Christ.

Let us also remember that healing extends beyond the physical realm. Our souls require healing from the wounds of sin, guilt, and shame. It is through the power of Christ’s sacrifice and forgiveness that we find true spiritual healing. As we surrender our brokenness to Him, He washes away our sins and fills us with His perfect love and peace.

Today, let us approach the throne of grace with faith and confidence, seeking God’s healing touch in our lives. Whether it be physical, emotional, or spiritual healing, we can trust that our Heavenly Father hears our prayers and responds according to His perfect will. Let us also strive to be instruments of His healing, bringing hope and restoration to those around us.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, We come before you today, seeking your healing touch in our lives. We lay our burdens and ailments at your feet, trusting in your power to restore and renew us. Lord, we believe that you are the Great Physician, capable of healing every affliction, both physical and spiritual.

In the name of Jesus, we ask for your healing presence to flow through our bodies, bringing strength, comfort, and restoration. Touch every area of pain, sickness, and disease, and replace it with your divine health. We declare that by your stripes, we are healed.

Lord, we also ask for emotional and spiritual healing. Mend the brokenness within our hearts and minds, and bring peace and wholeness to our souls. Heal us from the wounds of the past, and fill us with your love, joy, and peace that surpasses all understanding.

We pray not only for ourselves but also for those around us who are in need of healing. Reach out your hand and touch them with your grace and mercy. Use us as instruments of your healing, that we may bring hope and comfort to those who are hurting.

As we await your healing touch, grant us patience, faith, and trust in your perfect timing. Help us to surrender our worries and fears, knowing that you are in control and have a plan for our lives. May your will be done, and may your healing power be manifest in our lives for your glory.

In Jesus’ holy and precious name, we pray. Amen.

If you have never experienced the love of God through a relationship with Jesus then come to Him today. He will never turn you away.

July 7th 2023 – New Beginnings Through God’s Grace

As we embark on a new day, we are often filled with a sense of anticipation and hope. New beginnings allow us to leave behind the past, wipe the slate clean, and embrace the possibilities that lie ahead. In our Christian journey, we are blessed with the promise of new beginnings through the transformative power of God’s grace.

In 2 Corinthians 5:17, The Apostle Paul reminds us that when we come to Christ, we become new creations. Our past mistakes, regrets, and shortcomings no longer define us. Instead, we are given a fresh start, a chance to begin again. This newness is not something we can create on our own, but rather a gift from God Himself.

Just as the dawn breaks after a long night, God’s grace brings light and hope into the darkest corners of our lives. It is through His grace that we find forgiveness, redemption, and the strength to move forward. No matter how broken or lost we may feel, God’s love provides a way for us to experience a new beginning.

In embracing this new beginning, we are called to surrender our old ways and patterns of living. It requires humility and a willingness to let go of our own desires and ambitions, instead aligning our hearts with God’s will. As we embark on this fresh chapter, let us seek His guidance and direction, seeking to honor Him in all that we do.

Remember, that new beginnings are not just a one-time event but a continuous process. Each day, we have the opportunity to turn to God, seek His forgiveness, and experience His transforming power. Let us approach each new day with gratitude and a readiness to embrace the newness that God’s grace provides.

As we walk this journey of faith, let us encourage one another, reminding ourselves and our fellow believers of the promise of new beginnings in Christ. May we extend the same grace and love that we have received to those around us, helping them discover the hope and joy that comes from starting anew.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, we thank You for the gift of new beginnings through Your grace. Help us to fully embrace this fresh start, leaving behind our past mistakes and embracing the possibilities that lie ahead. Guide us in aligning our hearts with Your will, allowing Your transforming power to work in us each day. May we be a light to others, extending Your love and grace to those in need. In Jesus’ name, we pray. In Jesus’ precious name, Amen.

If you have never experienced the love of God through a relationship with Jesus then come to Him today. He will never turn you away.

July 6th 2023 – Embracing God’s Love and Grace

Romans 5:8 “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”

In the midst of our human imperfections and shortcomings, God chose to send His Son, Jesus Christ, to die on the cross for our sins. This act of sacrificial love reveals the depth of His mercy and the vastness of His grace.

Consider the significance of God’s love: it is not dependent on our actions or worthiness. While we were still sinners, Christ willingly laid down His life for us, offering us forgiveness and reconciliation with our Heavenly Father. It is through His sacrifice that we can experience true freedom from guilt and shame.

As we meditate on God’s love, we also should reflect on the grace that accompanies it. Grace is the unmerited favor of God, freely given to us, regardless of our past mistakes or present struggles. It is through God’s grace that we can find solace in times of weakness, strength in moments of doubt, and hope in the face of adversity.

In our journey of faith, it is easy to become burdened by self-condemnation or overwhelmed by the challenges we face. However, let us remember that God’s love and grace are greater than any obstacle we encounter. They offer us a fresh start, a renewed purpose, and an everlasting hope

Today, take a moment to embrace God’s love and grace. Open your heart to His forgiveness, allowing His love to heal any wounds or regrets you may carry. Surrender your burdens and trust in His grace to carry you through difficult times.

May you find comfort in knowing that you are loved beyond measure, and may God’s grace empower you to extend love and forgiveness to others. Let us live each day in gratitude for the immeasurable gift of His love and the boundless depths of His grace.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, thank you for your incredible love and grace. Help us to fully comprehend the depth of your love revealed through Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross. May we embrace your forgiveness and extend it to others. Fill our hearts with gratitude and empower us to live lives that reflect your love and grace. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

If you have never experienced the love of God through a relationship with Jesus then come to Him today. He will never turn you away.

April 12th 2020 – He Shall Live

Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live.” (John 11:25)

Easter is not about the Easter Bunny or brightly colored eggs. Easter is about the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

For some, Easter will be a great day, spent surrounded by family and friends. But for others, it will be a sad day, because Easter is a reminder of a loved one who has died and is now desperately missed.

Death seems so cruel, so harsh, and so final. That is what the disciples were feeling when they saw their Lord, whom they had left everything to follow, hanging on the cross. They were devastated. Death had crushed them. But if they would have gone back in their memories, they would have recalled an important event and statement Jesus had made.

They would have remembered Jesus standing at the tomb of his close friend Lazarus. They would have remembered that Jesus did something completely unexpected: He wept (see John 11:35 ). Jesus wept, because He knew that death was not part of God’s original plan. Humanity was not meant to grow old, to suffer with disease, or to die. But because of the sin of Adam and Eve, sin entered the human race, and death followed with it. And death spread to all of us. Jesus wept, because it broke His heart.

But standing there at Lazarus’ tomb, Jesus also delivered these hope filled words: “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live” (John 11:25).

Death is not the end. And the resurrection of Jesus Christ proves it.

If you have put your faith in Christ, then Easter means that you will live forever in the presence of God. Easter brings hope to the person who has been devastated by death.

“Death is not the end for the Believer in Christ!”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, Thank You for taking my sin upon You. I am sorry for the wrong things I have done and for the right I have failed to do. I confess my sins to You and ask for forgiveness. (Confess your sins, by act and by name to Him). Lord, thank You for helping me with my past and present sins. Help me to keep my eyes not on my sin, but on my Savior, Jesus. Help me to soar by casting off the weights of sin. Help me to live the life You have called me to live. I thank You for having a winning game plan for dealing with my Sin, In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Happy Easter from Scripturalseeds.org 

Looking to ask Jesus into or recommit your life to Him? Read Below..

Jesus says “Look! I stand at the door and knock. If you hear my voice and open the door, I will come in, and we will share a meal together as friends.” (Revelation 3:20)

The Bible promises eternal life to all who receive Christ: “And this is what God has testified: He has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have God’s Son does not have life. I have written this to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know you have eternal life.” (1 John 11-13)

If you have not asked Jesus into your life, You can receive Jesus Christ right now by faith through prayer.

Prayer is just talking with God. He knows your heart, so don’t worry about getting your words just right. Here is a suggested prayer to guide you:

Lord Jesus, I want to know you personally. Thank you for dying on the cross for my sins. I open the door of my life and receive you as my Saviour and Lord. Thank you for forgiving me of my sins and giving me eternal life. Take control of my life. Make me the kind of person You want me to be. Amen.

March 18th 2020 – Undeserved Priviledge

“It is this Good News that saves you if you continue to believe the message I told you-unless, of course, you believed something that was never true in the first place.” (1 Corinthians 15:2)

I cannot picture a more beautiful thing than the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Fallen humanity stands before God covered in filthy garments stained with sins. We desperately try to wipe off each stain but in the process, we only make it worse. All hope seems lost until the God of all creation, in the perfect act of love, comes down among us. He removes our filthy sin stained garments and they are nailed to the cross… along with Himself. We didn’t deserve it. We didn’t do anything to earn it. It was simply the act of a loving God.

“Therefore, since we have been made right in God’s sight by faith, we have peace with God because of what Jesus Christ our Lord has done for us. Because of our faith, Christ has brought us into this place of undeserved privilege where we now stand, and we confidently and joyfully look forward to sharing God’s glory.” (Romans 5:1-2)

Now if we believe in what Jesus did and stand in faith, we can be granted forgiveness and everlasting life. This undeserved privilege is given by grace from a God who desires that none should ever perish. Even as we walk this life with Christ, we will stumble and fall, but we can confidently stand back up understanding that His grace covers all our sins. Are you in this place of undeserved privilege? If so, then rejoice in Christ and share Him with others. If not, then come to Him now and find rest for your soul.

“We receive forgiveness only by grace. We stand or continue in our faith only by grace.”

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I know that I have sinned, and I thank You for the forgiveness offered through Jesus. Because of Your grace, I am able to live in a place of undeserved privilege. Thank You for the assurance that my sins are forgiven once I confessed them to you in repentance. Help me understand and recognize when I do sin sin. Draw me close to You for forgiveness and strenght from those areas of my life. Grow my desire to share Your love, Your forgiveness with others. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
