40 Days of Prayer: Day 32

But now in Christ Jesus you who formerly were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. Ephesians 2:13

Dear God,

As I reflect more on the "old way" of sacrifice that Your people participated in to be cleansed from sin, I am increasingly thankful for the new covenant and Your Son, Jesus Christ. Thank You that the blood of Christ brings me near to You by covering my sin and bridging the gap. Thank You that even though I was far off, disconnected from You and without hope in the world, that Your Holy Spirit quickened my heart and showed me Your plan. I am grateful for You, Jesus, that You obediently went to the cross and by Your selfless action, brought me near.

In Your Name,
Amen
