Old Testament Verse

He shall be great to the ends of the earth.
Micah 5:4

New Testament Verse

Jesus said, "Unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains just a single grain; but if it dies, it bears much fruit."
John 12:24

Prayer

Holy Lord, your greatness comes at the cost of taking the fall for me. As a result, I receive the fruitfulness of your death: new life in your eternal garden. I am sorry I resist this daily gift. Help me to trust you so I might walk in newness of life, serving others with this same attitude. Amen
