Prayer for grandmothers

Father, You promised in Jude that You will present us faultless before Your glory with exceeding joy. The presenting is Your work. The faultless is Your work. I am still in the middle of the story. The day You present me is ahead. But I know how the story ends. It ends faultless. Not because I made myself faultless. Because of the cross. Because of all the quiet work Your Spirit has been doing in me. Lord Jesus, the day You present me to the Father, I will not be shown a list of my failures. That list was nailed to the cross. I will be presented in You, dressed in You, accepted in You. And there will be great joy — Yours, the Father's, and mine. I can hardly take that in. So today let me live as a daughter whose future is settled. Not nervous. Not trying to add to what You have done. Let me walk into this ordinary day — the phone calls, the quiet hours, the plain work in front of me — knowing my end is good, my presenting is appointed, and my place at the joy is already saved. Amen.
