*E100 Challenge
Father, You are Holy and Awesome. I offer You my heart today. Let Your kingdom come and Your will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven. Let us experience Your tangible presence here on Earth. Give us the passion to be Your hands and feet; Your eyes and heart. We realize, Lord, that all things are Yours. Everything You've given You've given for a purpose. Help us find ways to use them to give You glory.
Father, my heart's desire is to accept Your identity. I've spent enough time walking in the world's identity. As I am made in Your image, let me walk like You, talk like You, and love like You. More than that, I desire to forgive like Joseph did. His brothers did some horrific things to him, but he still found strength to forgive. That strength can only come from You. When people hurt us, teach us to let it go. Teach us to live through forgiveness. Joseph could've used his position to punish his brothers for what they did. But Father, you know doing that wouldn't have brought him freedom. Revenge never does. Help us to know we can't use position, possessions, or pride to hold our brothers/sisters in bondage. Restoration is what You desire.
Keep us in Your love and grace. Let us walk in Your ways. And as we become more and more like You in Heaven, let us become more like You on Earth, in Jesus' name. Amen.
