Dear Father in the eternal heaven, may all creation admire and acknowledge your goodness, greatness, and grace this day. Your ways are above our methods. Your thoughts are above our wisdom. You are the truth and yet always remain a mystery to us. Your approach to things is different. You are both engineer and artist. You test us and desire that we believe in the midst of a complex world. Help us to past the tests that you have planned for us today. Help us gain from these tests the intellectual, emotional, and spiritual strength they were designed to develop in us. Keep us from wasting the potential good in each test. Thank you Messiah Jesus for dying for our sins, and coming back alive that we might be declared righteous before the eternal throne and gain from it grace and not condemnation. Thank you for opening the treasure rooms of heaven to us and making it possible for us to be adopted as your brothers and sisters. Your mercy is beyond measure and your sacrifice greater than our greatest expressions of it Lord thank you for your love. Amen
