Jesus, as you gave up your life for our sake, may we lay down our lives for you. We praise you this morning for your great love, that you made us alive – even when we were dead in our sins. By your Spirit, help us to live as a people with our eyes and hearts fixed firmly on you, that we might rely on your strength to do the work you have prepared for us. All that we have and all that we are belongs to you. In Jesus’ name we pray, amen.
