{Ephesians 2:8-10; NLT}
God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.
Father in Heaven,
Thank You for Your amazing grace and mercy. Without Your gracious love I would be lost without hope or purpose. Life is truly a gift from You.
Lord, I ask that You will open my eyes to the work that You are doing in this world and show me the ways I can join You in that work. Bring me into a community of faith that desires to do Your will and who will encourage me to use my gifts, talents, and resources for Your Kingdom. May our unity, compassion, and work be a blessing to You.
It amazes me that You are able to redeem my life and use me to create a masterpiece of love. Thank You Father for restoring my life and giving me a life worth living.
