Romans 1:16

For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile. - Romans 1:16

Dear Jesus,

I heard it again yesterday. A saint told me that he was disappointed that he heard a sermon urging us to live a godly life and not once was your forgiveness and rescue mentioned. I'm glad that you have taught your church to long for the "Old, Old story of your love!" I'm not ashamed to tell the world that I was lost but now I am found, that my greatest hope is the hope of rescue and not of reformation, that I have a God who saves, not just helps. Give me the transparent boldness to mention your name and your great work to anyone and everyone at any moment of my days. Thank you for choosing me of all people to know, understand and embrace what it means to be forgiven of what I am so I can be rescued forever. I will live today in joy and peace.

Amen
