June 8

Our Loving Lord,
We thank you this morning for being our Great and Wonderful Father. Thank you for justice and mercy are the sum of Your name. We thank you because You did not come to the world to condemn the world but to save it. You knew that satan would accuse You of being a tyrannical dictator that only wants to destroy those who do not do as You say, but being far from the truth, You sent Your precious, dear and only Son to this earth to display Your true love for humanity. Out of love to You in return, You knew that we would delight to do Your will, that Your law would be in our hearts. You knew that we would look at Christ's suffering, death and resurrection and see that it was because of us that He had to die and our hearts would be broken in two and that we would want to present our bodies a living sacrifice for Him. Thank you for Your plan of redemption. Help us Father for we lack the perfection that You call us to. We need Your grace this morning and we ask it in the slain Lamb's name, Amen.
