Making That Necessary 180-Degree Turn

Lela Fagan March 30, 2025

Lord, today I come before You with a humble heart, acknowledging the profound transformation You have brought into my life. I have made a complete 180-degree turn, and now I rest peacefully in Your divine presence. My spirit has been reborn and sealed, fully surrendered and bound to You. I willingly submit my mind, soul, and body to be led by Your perfect will.

I am grateful for Your boundless grace and the new mercies that greet me each morning. Your unmerited favor and unconditional agape love overwhelm me. Because of this love, I approach Your courts with confidence and praise, knowing I am Your beloved.

I stand in awe of You, Lord, deeply moved by the magnitude of Your love. You have given me a Savior, a Redeemer, and a loving Brother in Jesus. I am forever grateful for the priceless gift of His blood and sacrifice. My only response is gratitude and unwavering acceptance of Your love.

Thank You, Lord. Amen.
