• The Gospel Prayer
  In Christ, there is nothing I can do that would make You love me more, and nothing I have done that makes You love me less.
  Your presence and approval are all I need for everlasting joy.
  As You have been to me, so I will be to others.
  As I pray, I'll measure Your compassion by the cross and Your power by the resurrection.

Watch the water heal itself of your presence--not to repair injury but to offer itself again should you care to risk another strapping [...].
