2 Corinthians 5

Father, I see all things in my life are of you. Even when I was given over to self and sin, you were there. You oversaw and orchestrated all the circumstances to break me and bring me to enthusiastic repentance.

Through Christ in me, you reconciled me to you. You did not charge me with my sin. Instead, you charged Jesus, who knew no sin, to be the propitiation for my sin. I became, by your grace and his sacrifice, your holy righteousness, Father.

Now you have given me a ministry of reconciliation to those who are seeking you. I am your ambassador in this lost and chaotic world. You implore the lost, through me and all your saints, to, on Christ’s behalf, be reconciled to you as our God and our father.
