My Favorite Collect written By Jady Koch
Collect for the Unrighteous

Almighty God,
Who while we were yet sinners, sent your own Son to be the one full,
perfect and sufficient sacrifice, oblation and satisfaction for the sins of the whole world, and without whom we would not know love. By your Grace, create in us new hearts that love as we’ve been loved, so that we would live as sinners saved; people of mercy who, through the imputed righteousness of Your Son, have been wholly justified, completely sanctified and fully redeemed. In the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen

   Jedekiah,

   How funny, never heard of Kinkade?
   Your Collect was made for this painting…just removed it for you. Hope that eases your conscious, but I am creating a link from your collect to the Kinkade online art gallery:)
