Holy God, there is no one like you. You give us your story, incorporate it into our story, and use us to tell the story of the differences before and after you pulled us from the fire of sin. Loose my tongue, Father. Bring people into my path to begin the conversations that lead them to you. Let them see Jesus in me. Prompt them to ask about what they see. Prompt me to know when to speak of your glory. I ask in the name and authority of Jesus, who finishes the story, according to your good and perfect will. Amen.

“Therefore, preparing your minds for action, and being sober-minded, set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.” (1 Peter 1:13 ESV)
