The prayer
A prayer to pray now
Father, Your Word says You love us so much that we are called Your children. Not employees. Not volunteers.
I forget that. I keep acting like I work for You, like my worth depends on how much I get done for You this week.
But this baby in my arms does not earn her place here. She is mine because she was born to me. She is loved on the days she sleeps and the days she does not, when she smiles and when she screams.
I am Yours the same way. Not for what I do. By birth, into Christ.
Let that change how I talk to You today. I am coming to a Father, not filing a report.
Amen.
