Love and sent

"O Father, thou hast loved me and sent Jesus to redeem me." - The Valley of Vision.

I have been praying this prayer for our seniors this week. When I look at the names of these students who have less than a year left in our spiritual community, my prayer is that they would know that God loves them and that he sent Jesus to redeem them. There's a lot of things I want them to take with them when they graduate, but these two are indispensable. It's my goal to have a conversation with each senior about this prayer before January 1, 2008. I can't wait to hear the stories from the lips of the class of 2008. I am going to get started tomorrow night before our gathering at 7:00 p.m.
