pray for a relationship with God – choose Jesus daily to embrace the path of righteousness
Message:
Jesus died for you knowing you might not ever love Him back. He died for you knowing in full your absolute worst sins. He died for you, forgiving those sins completely and forgives every sin you’ll continue to choose over Him. He loves you. He wants the best for you. Choose Jesus.
Prayer:
Dear Heavenly Father, I come before You with a heart filled with gratitude for the incredible love You have shown me through Jesus Christ. Your willingness to sacrifice so much for my sins, even when You knew I might not reciprocate that love, overwhelms me. It is a love that is unconditional and pure, a love that forgives and redeems. I acknowledge that I am not perfect and that I often stray from the path You have laid before me. Yet, in Your infinite mercy, You continue to forgive me time and time again, reminding me that no sin is too great for Your grace.
Lord, in moments of doubt and despair, help me to remember the depth of Your sacrifice and the price that was paid for my freedom. You see all my flaws and failures, yet You choose to love me through them. Teach me to embrace that love, to let it transform my heart and mind, and to reflect it in my actions towards others. Help me to remember that Your love is not based on my performance or my willingness to deserve it, but rather on who You are—my loving Creator.
As I navigate my daily life, I often face temptations that lead me away from You. I ask for the strength and clarity to make choices that honor You and align with Your will. Let me choose Jesus daily, to embrace the path of righteousness, and to seek first Your kingdom above all else. May my heart be a vessel of Your grace, able to spread love and forgiveness to those around me.
Thank You for the promise that You want the best for me. I am reminded that true fulfillment is found in a relationship with You through Christ. Help me to cultivate that relationship, to dive deeper into Your Word, and to seek communion with You in prayer. I trust that as I choose You, every aspect of my life will be enriched by Your presence. Fill me with Your wisdom, and let my life be a testament to Your love.
I pray this in the name of Jesus, who died for my sins and rose again. Amen.
