Prayer

[pld]

Heavenly Father, we give thanks to you for this great truth. We pray,
if any among us here haven't yet found it to be true, that even in the
quietness of this moment they can experience this new life in Jesus
Christ, that they will open up their hearts and say, "Lord Jesus, I
need you, and you promised to come in, so come in, Lord," and that
this great transaction will take place so that they will never be the
same again. And we who have found it to be true, Lord, ask you to make
plain what this means -- that this is who we are, and that we will
never be able to handle life aright until we first know who we are.
Help us to remember this, and impress it on our hearts and minds again
and again that we have been made alive in Jesus Christ, called out of
darkness into light, delivered from the power of Satan into the
kingdom of God, and made new creatures in Jesus Christ. We thank you
in his name, Amen.
