Today's Passage:
Acts 2: 38-39
And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.
John 14: 25-26
These things I have spoken to you while I am still with you. But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.
Today's Prayer: Dear God, thank you for the gift of your spirit. We are in awe of how your plan from the very beginning was to lavish us in kindness, love, mercy, and grace. We praise you for equipping us with the very spirit that raised Jesus from the dead, and we ask that you help us to believe and trust in that power. Would your spirit call to our remembrance your truth as we engage with the practice of fasting. You are the bread of life. May we find deep comfort in knowing you, far beyond what physical sustenance can provide. We ask for the same renewal of spirit that was sought in Psalm 51. Thank you for the scriptures and how they give us such deep insight into your heart and our purpose. Give us a craving to know you more through your word, and engrave what we learn on our hearts that we may echo the heavens that declare your glory. We love you, and we ask these things in confidence- not in our abilities- but in your everlasting love, power, and glory. Amen
