Robert Hawker: Piercing Heaven – Puritan’s Prayers

Lord, grant me grace to abide in Jesus, that every act of my life may testify whose I am, and whom I serve.

And like the martyr who answered every question “I am a Christian,” may my every thought, word, and action proclaim Jesus and my union and oneness with him—so that everyone may plainly see I am no longer my own.

But instead, “being bought with a price, you glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are both his.”

Amen.
