¹⁸ All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: ¹⁹ that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people’s sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. (2 Cor. 5:18-19, NIV)

Lord, may my life be so impacted by the power of the gospel that the very environment around me is changed. Lead me not in the temporary realities of the world around me, but lead me to walk in the Kingdom realities that bring deep, true change.
