Loving Father, the rotation of the earth has the days growing shorter. The rotation of the years moves me closer to the end of life this side of glory. I sense the urgency of the coming certainty, and I look to live freely and without fear as each new day rolls through. My body and mind may fail me, Father, but with the help of your Holy Spirit, I will never forget the name of Jesus. You have engraved it on my heart. You embellish it with the teaching of your Holy Spirit. You have sealed me to your covenant promise in the name and authority of Jesus, according to your good and perfect will. Amen.
“These things I have spoken to you while I am still with you. But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.” (John 25-26 ESV)
