Today's Prayer:
Lord, as Paul closes his letter to the Ephesians,
I am struck by his final phrase regarding the type of love that comes from you, Jesus.
He calls your love, “incorruptible”.
Master, how powerful is this word to me, especially in our day and time.
Not merely for the corruption that I see in the world around me.
But for my own corrupted heart.
How frequent is my love corrupted by sin and selfishness.
Yet, yours is pure.
And it is this love that we have access to in sharing with those around us.
This, like Paul, gives us courage to speak boldly about you!
May we stay close to your word, close to your heart, close to this incorruptible love.
For it is the fountain of everlasting life for our weary souls, and for those souls we interact with every day.
May we continue, even after these 21 days, to meditate on your word, for it is life.
Amen.
Thanks for joining us. Grace be with you, who love our Lord Jesus Christ with love incorruptible.
