Praying with Paul: 'Everything to Everyone'

Thursday, May 8, 2025

1 Corinthians 15:27-28

Dear Father, my everything,

May I learn from Christ's subjection to you, for when all things are subjected to him, your Son himself will also be subject to you, the God who put all things under the Son, that you may be everything to everyone!

Our Father, increase my love for you until you become everything to me! It is almost too awesome to ask - I am afraid of so much change: May I love you like Jesus loves you!

In his name. Amen.
