A prayer for Romans 5:8
Father, I confess I've often approached You as if my acceptance with You depends on my performance. Forgive me for the pride hidden in my striving and the shame that keeps me from fully resting in Your love. Help me to receive what You've already given — not as permission to stay comfortable, but as a foundation for real change. Teach me to live from my identity in Christ rather than for it. In Jesus' name, Amen.
