A Collect for Righteousness

Lord of righteousness, who lived in perfect obedience to the Father, we praise you for your free gift that opens for us the opportunity to be made holy. Give us strength each moment to turn from disobedience and receive the joy that you offer, through you who lives in unity with the Father and Holy Spirit. Amen.

"For just as by the one man's disobedience the many were made sinners, so by the one man's obedience the many will be made righteous." - Romans 5:19
