<td width="50%">But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, 5 even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved— 6 and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7 so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.</td>

<td width="50%">Father, I thank You that in my present You showed me mercy, and You loved me by making me alive from the spiritual death I was in; by Your grace saving me from the consequences of the guilt of my sin. I thank You that in my present You have raised me up with Christ from the grave, from spiritual death into spiritual life, and have raised me up from the earth and have seated me in heaven, in Christ. Father, I thank You that in the future you are going to show such kindness to me, in Christ Jesus, that Your grace will be seen as immeasurably rich.</td>
