Pray with me:
Father, thank you for loving the whole world enough to send your only Son. Thank you for loving us and calling us. We pray that you will continue your sanctifying work of making us like Jesus. We do not ask to become “holier than thou,” but we pray that you will make us holier than we were. Conform us to Jesus until others see Jesus in us. Thank you for this promise: when we look to you, we become radiant! In Jesus’ name. Amen.
