>He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant - not of the 
>letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.
>--2 Corinthians 3:6
>New International Version

>THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY'S VERSE...
>A new covenant -- God willingly entered into a new agreement with 
>us, his creatures, sealed it with the blood of his Son Jesus, and 
>sent the Spirit to give us the power to live the life of this new 
>covenant. God has made a covenant of love and grace with us. The 
>Almighty has then turned around and made us worthy and competent to 
>share that covenant with others. Now wonder it is life-giving: it 
>brings life to us and through us!
>
>MY PRAYER...
>O holy and majestic God, thank you for your grace that has saved me 
>from sin and has redeemed me from the law of sin and death. Thank 
>you for sending the gift of your Son and the gift of your Spirit so 
>that I can live with you in a covenant of life, grace, and love. 
>While I confess my weaknesses, I also promise you that I will live 
>to honor your sacrifice, love and covenant, trusting that you will 
>ultimately empower me to be what you are calling me to be. In Jesus 
>name I pray. Amen.

The LORD your God in your midst,
The Mighty One, will save;
He will rejoice over you with gladness,
He will quiet you with His love,
He will rejoice over you with singing.
         ~ Zephaniah 3:17 (NKJV)
