God, through the mysterious-to-us actvity of Christ you've establised a new covenant with us. It's a promise that rests in our hearts and minds. We don't always pay attention to what you have planted within us. Help us to tune out the distractions so that we can display and explain what Christ has done and is doing. I want to be a living invitaion passionately drawing people to him and his ways. Amen.
