Dear Father, You have been so kind and gracious to have shown mercy to us even in our worst times. At no time have You ever given us what we truly deserve. You do not do things in vain. Your mercies to us are for Your glory - that it will be all of You and Your righteousness and none of ours. Nothing short of perfection and holiness will survive in eternity, and You will tolerate none of it, so You also have provided that we can be counted as perfect and holy in Christ. Thank you for reminding us so that we will be revived and drawn all the closer to You, our refuge and strength and song.
