We are all called to share the good news of Jesus, of His mercy and grace. God, grant us an immediate perspective of what we should be doing with our faith in you daily.  Grant us a historical perspective to fully understand how you bring all things together according to your will.  Grant us an eternal perspective.  Not just one that connects us to a future full of hope but to a past filled with mercy and grace, a past that has always pointed to your purpose of hope for all of humanity.  Ephesians
