Heavenly Father, thank You for Your Word and the truth it contains. Thank You that You have not forsaken Your people Israel, even though they rejected You. Thank You that although I was far off from You and without hope in the world, You reached down in Your goodness and grace to be my good Shepherd as well.. so that by grace through faith in Christ I have received reconciliation; redemption; the forgiveness of sin and life everlasting. Praise You holy name, AMEN.
