40 Days of prayer: Day 36

I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me. Galatians 2:20

Dear Lord,

As we look forward this week to celebrating Your crucifixion and ultimately Your resurrection, I am daily reminded that it was Your love for me that sent you to the cross. I praise You that I have been crucified with You - my old, sinful self is dead and I now live my life by faith in You. Lord, I pray that You living in me would be so evident to those around me that they would never have reason to question your existence. Shine through me, Lord. May Your beauty rest upon me that others would forget me as the channel, seeing only You.

In Your name,
Amen.
