THE RESURRECTION

FRUIT: FAITH

Lord, as You promised, You rose from the dead. You always kept Your promises which means I must embrace the cross as You instructed if I am to rise to a new life in You. Grant me the strength to live for Your kingdom that You opened up to all of humanity when You rose from the dead.
