Using a grindstone

Loving Father, 

I desire to grow in my Christian life and become more like You Lord Jesus. I know it will require me to put my hand to the grindstone and press on with the patient endurance that only You can supply. I pray that I will not lose heart or become weary in carrying out the good things that You have assigned to me to do.  You know that if I refrain from giving up, or growing faint. The harvest will be a plentiful reward in due time. I will carry out all you call me to, with you on my side. I pray in Jesus Mighty Name Amen. 

“And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.”

(Galatians 6:9)

More than a conqueror

Oh Father in heaven 

You have warned me that I would face difficulties in this world, but You have also assured me that I shall find peace, freedom, and victory in You. Help me to seek You first when life is difficult, and to be filled with Your strength when my flesh is frail. Help me to live and remain in Your power. Help me remember that You have already conquered this world, that You love me, and that in You, I am more than a conqueror!  

In Jesus Mighty Name Amen 

Romans 8:37

No we are more than conquerors in Jesus
