Thank you, father, that even when I was dead in sins against you, you quickened me together with Christ.  You raised Jesus and me up and made me sit together with you in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. Throughout the ages you have shown the exceeding riches of your grace and kindness towards me through Christ Jesus. I am saved by your grace through faith. I am your workmanship created in Christ Jesus unto good works that you, father, have ordained beforehand that I would walk in.

Now, Father, in Christ, I, who was once faroff from you, am brought near to you; you are my peace. You have a abolished through Jesus’s sacrifice the enmity between me and you. I am reconcile to you, my heavenly father. Through my Lord Jesus I have access by your Holy Spirit unto you, father. Now I am no longer a stranger or a foreigner, but now I am a fellow citizen with the Saints and a member of your household, father. Wow!
