Heavenly Father, who has loved us since before the foundation of the world, we thank you for blessing us with all good things. Grant that in response we might find the strength in Christ to be holy before you and before all those whom you desire to redeem in creation, through our Lord Jesus Christ, who reigns with you and the Holy Spirit in perfect love forever and ever. Amen.
‘Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, just as he chose us in Christ before the foundation of the world to be holy and blameless before him in love.’ – Eph. 1:3-4
