The Greatest

“The one who comes from heaven to earth is greater than anyone else, the one born on earth is of the earth, the one who comes from heaven is above all.” (John 3: 31)

 

Lord,

You are the greatest of the great,

Thank you that I am your child,

Help me never to doubt you,

Help me to live always trusting you.

Amen

From Darkness to Light

“Those who live in God’s truth are filled with God’s light so others can see God working in them.” (John 3: 21)

 

Father,

Thank you for taking me out of darkness,

And filling me with your light.

Let your light shine brightly within me,

Let others see your light through me.

Amen

Living in the Light

“God’s light streamed into the world.  But some people rejected it because they want to live in darkness.” (John 3: 19)

 

“Lord,

Thank you for your light which fills my life,

With direction, warmth and love.

Guide me in living fully in that light,

And in helping others to discover it.

Amen

Freedom!

“Whoever trusts in God’s Son is set free.  And whoever doesn’t trust has condemned himself.” (John 3: 18)

 

Father,

Thank you that in your grace I am set free,

And that your grace will never let me go.

When I forget help me to remember,

When I doubt help me to believe.

Amen

Eternal Confidence

“God did not send his Son into the world to condemn it but rather to save it.” (John 3: 17)

 

Father,

Thank you for sending your son to bring light into our world,

And for the salvation you have given me through him.

Help me to rest in confidence in your promise,

And to rest in peace in your love.

Amen

Love that Conquers our Greatest Fears

“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who trusts in him will never die but have eternal life.” (John 3: 16)

Father,

Thank you for your love,

Power greater than anything I might fear,

Thank you that your love conquers all when I trust,

So help me to stand firm in that faith,

When I doubt help me to believe,

When I fear remind me of your love,

And I will praise you forever.

Amen

Loved Beyond Imagination

“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, so that everyone who trusts in him will never die but have eternal life.” (John 3: 16)

Father,

Thank you for giving me your greatest gift,

And proving your love for me in that gift.

When I feel alone help me to feel your love,

And let me see evidence of your love everyday,

As I look with eyes of faith.

Amen
