Today I receive grace, mercy and peace from God, my father, and Christ Jesus, my Lord. I pray that I will be a good steward of the truth and presence of God.  The aim of my walk in Christ today is love that issues from a pure heart and a good conscience and a sincere faith. I do not swerve from these and I avoid vain discussions. I do not engage in anything that is contrary to sound doctrine in accordance with the gospel of the glory of God.

I received mercy from God and the grace of my Lord Jesus overflows for me with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus. It is true to say that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners of whom I am the foremost. But I received mercy to show God’s perfect patience to those who believe in him for eternal life. To the king of the ages, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever.

I receive this charge in accordance with your calling, Father, that by your grace and presence I will wage the good warfare, holding faith and a good conscience.
