Prayer

Jesus taught us to pray 'Your kingdom come' (Matthew 6:10), including the promise of our transformed bodies.

Father, You are the God who raises the dead and transforms the perishable into the imperishable. I confess that I often focus more on this temporary body than on the glorious one You've promised. Help me live today with the confidence that what I will become in Christ surpasses anything I can imagine. Transform my perspective to match Your eternal purposes. In Jesus' name, Amen.
