Your Life in Me

Lord Jesus,

help me today to walk in the reality of 

Your resurrection and of 

Your life in me. 

Amen.

In Every Created Thing

Praying without ceasing

is finding Christ in
every created thing

All of Time

The death, burial and 

resurrection of Christ 

played out in history but 

affects all of time, from 

eternity to eternity.

The Last Word

Christ has died. Christ is risen.

Christ will come again.

Neither sin nor death

get the last word.

A Fine Madness

Divine love is a fine madness.

Why We Must Forgive

We are, each of us, profoundly connected to one another. 

It cannot be undone without undoing the whole world. 

This is why we must forgive 

if we are to be made whole 

and the world put right.

What It Means to be Freely Forgiven

We do not know what it means to be freely forgiven

until we have freely forgiven another.

And there we find the kingdom of God,

the will of God done on earth

as in heaven.

No Shame So Deep

There is no shame so deep

that the love of God

is not deeper still,

pouring itself out,

even on a cross,

for our sake.

Jesus Has Lifted Our Shame

Jesus has lifted our shame and carried it to the cross.

By that shameful death, he put shame itself to death,

for he is pure and righteous,and shame 

had no right to him.

Like Leaven in Bread

In Jesus Christ, God became human.

How can this not but transform

all of humanity,like leaven in bread?

This is how the kingdom of God works,

and the leaven of God’s love.

Forgiveness is Choosing to Trust God

Forgiveness is choosing to trust that,

whatever wrong we may have suffered by another,

God will make us whole.

It begins with the words, "I forgive,"

and continues as often as the need

arises in our heart.

When We Choose to Forgive

When we choose to forgive,

we are allowing God

to love another

through us.

The Blessing of Our Helplessness

How blessed it is to realize our helplessness,

for then we can hope in God

and trust His love.

How blessed it is to acknowledge our sin,

for then we can hope in God

and trust His forgiveness.

The Change We Really Need

The change we really need does not come 

from psychological techniques 

or spiritual disciplines but by 

the gracious work of 

the Holy Spirit.
