PROVERBS 4:18 (MSG)
The ways of right-living people glow with light;
the longer they live, the brighter they shine.
1 JOHN 3:2 (MSG)
But friends, that’s exactly who we are: children of God. And that’s only the beginning. Who knows how we’ll end up! What we know is that when Christ is openly revealed, we’ll see him—and in seeing him, become like him.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
When it comes to living for Christ the best is yet to come.
PRAYER
Heavenly Father, through Christ you have welcomed us into your family. I don't yet fully grasp all that it means to be so closely aligned with him and your family. I trip up a good deal of the time. Help me to trust in your mercy and to more fully align my life with yours. I don't know exactly what's ahead but knowing you I'm sure that it is good. Amen.
THE LORD’S PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name, your Kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.
