Rescue!

The Third Day of Christmas

Return, O Lord, and rescue me. Save me because of your unfailing love. ~ Psalm 6:4 (NLT)

Jesus turned. He saw the woman and said, “Don’t worry! You are now well because of your faith.” At that moment she was healed. ~ Matthew 9:22 (CEV)

KEY IDEA:
The all-loving Lord saves those who exercise faith and turn to him.
PRAYER:
Lord:

THANKS: Thank you for loving us so much that you save us -- even though we do not deserve saving.

REGRETS: I do not fully appreciate all that you have and continue to do for me. My devotion to you is shallow. It goes up and down depending on circumstance and time available.

INTERCESSION: Help me to be more consistent. 

PURPOSE: I'm going to become a faithful follower of Jesus -- someone fully shaped by your love.

Amen.
