Father, thank You for the mercy of a new day;
For Your intention of bringing Your creation into relationship with You.
Lord Jesus, thank You for the reminder of Your journey to true sacrifice.
Like Peter, I often realise too late that I've denied You;
My soul is crushed when I see my turning away.
But, thanks be to Your amazing grace,
Because You still see me worthy of redemption.
Never could I deserve Your gift, nor do I have a way to repay it.
Yet You are faithfully abundant in your giving of it.
It's Your kindness that brings me to repentance Oh Lord;
How grateful I am for Your kindness rather than criticism.
People disappoint.
You God, never disappoint.
You are above and beyond the frailty of humanity,
Yet are invested in us to the point of death.
Such a paradox I'll never fully grasp.
Still, I will live in the wonder of this great mystery all my days.
May Your love never grow weary of me;
Might my eyes never waver from Yours,
And my will desire Yours more and more.
I need You Jesus.
You are my Rock and my Redeemer... amen.
