…you are fellow citizens with the holy ones and members of the household of God… Ephesians 2:19
…he chose Twelve…Luke 6:13
Lord, I love, honor and praise you for choosing me to be a family member of your household. At my baptism you adopted me and invited me into your great family with all the privileges, rights and responsibility that go with being so close to you. You’ve called me to an intimate and living relationship with you and the other members of your family. What an awesome honor you have placed on me. I am an essential and important contributor to the working of your church family. I’ll not likely be called to any high-profile position or asked to write a gospel. But I am called to be faithful each day to you and to bear the fruit you’ve chosen me to bear. Live in me today, Jesus, so I can be the parent, spouse and child of God you’ve chosen me to be. Live in me so I can serve you and the rest of your family in the role you’ve given me. With your grace I can be a faithful citizen and member of your household. St. Simon and Jude, pray for us. Amen
