God, You created us for fellowship with You. We are designed to walk with You and delight in Your ways. But every day, we choose not to do that. We choose to go our own way. We put up a sign on our heart: Keep out. You could just let us wander off. You could see that sign and walk away. But You don’t. You seek after each one of us, and You sent Your Son, Jesus, among us to call us back. Back to a full, open and loving relationship with You. Back home. Help us respond to that call. Help us turn away from ourselves and toward You. We are awestruck at this amazing gift You offer—life with You, forever. It is hard to comprehend such a gift. All we can do is touch it at the edges. But where knowledge fails, faith and love succeed. Give Nogginer’s Brother faith in Your saving power. And thank You for the love that rescues us. In the name of Your Son, our Redeemer, Jesus Christ.
Amen
