(Paul said) "I now place you in God’s care. Remember the message about his great kindness! This message can help you..." ~ Acts 20:32a (CEV)
Lord, you have been, and continue to be, kind to us. And I'm doing my best to humbly receive your message to the world. I want my life to be shaped by the Jesus message. But there are a lot of competing messages out there, and sometimes my attention drifts in the wrong direction. Help me to stay focused so that I am depending on you -- and you alone. The thing I most need in life is the message of your great kindness. Nothing refreshes me like this message. Amen.
