Lord God my Father,

Jesus told her, “I am the resurrection and the life

“Father, thank you for hearing me. 42You always hear me, but I said it out loud for the sake of all these people standing here, so that they will believe you sent me.”

Lord God my Father,

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

And it is true that the children of this world are more shrewd in dealing with the world around them than are the children of the light. 

‘We are unworthy servants who have simply done our duty.’”

Your faith has healed you

Lord God my Father,

Protect me and bring me your peace as I am in this world, show me the darkness so I can avoid it. I am a sinner but desperate to live under your authority. I am only worthy by your grace, give me faith that is solid on your truth.

For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.”

We had to celebrate this happy day. For your brother was dead and has come back to life! He was lost, but now he is found!’”

Lord God my Father,

Keep me in check that I don’t take any of your glory for myself. I am lost and only by your grace have I been found and become an excited part of your family. Thank you for always looking for me even when I was away from you.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
