Day 299: Mark 15-16; Psalm 128

Surely You have born our sorrow and carried our grief. The weight of our sin was upon You and by Your stripes we have been healed of sin-sickness and disease. How can we ever express our gratitude, what more can we do than to offer ourselves to You? May our lives bring You joy, our love serve You well, our witness speak Your love to a lost and dying world that all may have the opportunity to know Your forgiveness and the hope extended to them in Your death and resurrection. This we pray for Your honor and glory in Your Name, Lord Jesus. Amen!
