Dear Lord God,
You are my loving and forgiving Father in Heaven.
Thank You for giving me Your love that...
…always protects, always trusts,
always hopes, always perseveres.
1 Corinthians 13:7
Today my prayer is for people who have wandered away from You, as described in the parables that Jesus told about the lost sheep, the lost coin and the lost Son (Luke 15).
Whether for reasons of anger, fear, selfish ambition or doubt—I pray that their eyes will be opened to Your love, acceptance and forgiveness.
I pray that You would give me the strength to overcome the temptations in my life that pull me away from You.
Lord, thank You for Your grace, please let it wash over me today.
In Jesus' name I pray,
Amen.
