“On Always Needing the Gospel”

Ephesians 2-3

God, I have heard of your good news of salvation.

The news of the Father’s plan to bring us back.

The Son’s life, death, and resurrection to accomplish the plan.

The Spirit’s work of applying all the heavenly realities to my specific life.

My sacred confession is that Jesus is Lord and I have turned from placing my hope in anything else.

But I confess that the goodness of this news is often lost on me.

I am quick to doubt

And question

And forge my own way.

So I ask, oh God, that you would restore the joy of my salvation.

That you would sink the realities of the gospel deep in my soul.

Do more than I could ask or imagine for my joy and your glory.
