Whoever pursues righteousness and love finds life, prosperity and honor.
Proverbs 21:21
Abba Father, in your unfailing love and tender mercy, like a Good Shepherd, you nurture us, watching over us, binding your flock and herding us to safe pastures. You have revealed to us the good news of your kingdom, where we know we will reside for all eternity. Our beloved Savior, your Son Jesus, has shown us the way to salvation and has set us on the right path, atoning for our sins and redeeming us from darkness.
We are exhorted by our Lord Jesus, to live humbly and honestly, zealous in our faith, following the goodness and the righteousness of the path of your grace. Father, you have given us the Word of life and all we need is to increase our faith and be obedient, by submitting to your Divine Will. We surrender our lives, placing ourselves in your capable hands, relying on your mercy, trusting you implicitly, and carefully following the path of righteousness, mercy and our gaze fixed heavenwards.
We aspire everyday to faithfully follow Jesus, abiding in him through the Power of your Holy Spirit, diligent and fervent in our pursuit of holiness, and with peace and love towards all. Seeking you and enhancing our spiritual communion with you, we are assured of your graces, favor, rewards and benefits. Gracious God, you bestow all things upon those who keep your commands. Bless us Lord and protect us from our adversaries, as we persist in living in love and unity, in Jesus’ Name. Amen
