Lent Day 7: Wednesday after the First Sunday in Lent

15 But God will redeem my soul from the power of Sheol, For He will receive me. Selah. ~ Psalm 49:15 (NASB)

Heavenly Father, I deserve to die forever for the sins I have committed. Yet You arranged for Jesus to bear my sins and take my punishment. Because He took my punishment, You give me eternal life with You. Give me a grateful heart, fill me with the Holy Spirit, and help me to live in Your will in love and gratitude. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
