Lord God, source of all light and truth and goodness, keep us from claiming to walk with you while failing to do what you have commanded, that our words would match our lives and our hearts would convict us of our wrongs and point us continually back to your kingdom, through Jesus Christ our Lord, who reigns with you and the Holy Spirit in glory forever. Amen.
‘This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light and in him there is no darkness at all. If we say that we have fellowship with him while we are walking in darkness, we lie and do not do what is true.’ – 1 John 1:5-6
