“Whoever does not love does not know God, for God is love.” 1 John 4:8

Dear Father God,

Thank You for loving me so much that in Your plan for creation You put me right here, right now.

Thank You for loving me that much and always being so, so good to me.

Thank You for Your patience and mercy for a sinner like me.

Thank You for loving me so much that You sent Your Only Son, Jesus the Christ, so that I might live through Him. My atoning sacrifice.

Grant me a clean, undivided heart. Grant that I see others through the eyes of Jesus. Grant that I share this love, the love of Jesus.

Thank You for creating such a heart in us that burns brightly for You, or darkly for Satan. Grant that my heart always burns brightly, full of the Spirit.

In Jesus’ name. Amen.
