Lord Jesus Christ, in whom we live and move and have our being, teach us to live as you lived and to live with your life flowing through us as you lived with the Father’s life flowing through you, that we might demonstrate to the world your goodness and be ready to receive you with joy when we meet face to face, through you who loved us to the end and ascended to the Father and Holy Spirit. Amen. ‘For to me, living is Christ and dying is gain.’ – Phil. 1:21
