Gracious God--
Thank you for setting us free. Thank you for liberating me from the powers of sin, even if I do keep trying to enslave myself once more to them. Thank you for shattering the power of my idols, even if I continue laboring to piece them back together again. Thank you for setting me free, even if I do peer over my shoulder, longing for the comfort of sin over the frightening commitment you demand.

You have set me free, and yet you know that true freedom can only come with a life centered in you. I pray, dear Lord, that you might strengthen and convict me, that I will be filled with passion for you and your love, that my life might be an offering to you, a thanksgiving praise song for your mighty love. Thank you, Lord.

Amen
