Heavenly Father, thank You for the life and ministry of the apostle, Paul. Thank You for the example he set of Christ-likeness, through self-sacrifice, holy and acceptable to You. My heart’s cry is to know You more intimately, to love You more deeply, and to follow You more closely, no matter what the cost. May I know the power of Your resurrected life and be willing to fellowship in Christ’s suffering, for His name’s sake. May I present my life to You as a holy and living sacrifice. In Jesus' name, AMEN.
