Be
joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.
— Romans 12:12
A gentle reminder. . .
Sometimes it is difficult at best to be joyful and patient, and
even less faithful in prayer.
I don’t know about you, but there are times in my life when
surviving day to day is a struggle and I simply have to throw myself into
prayer, trusting that my God will see me through.
It is not easy.
Phil Ware, one of the contributing authors of Verse of the Day
has this to say:
“Choosing joy through hope rather than despair,
choosing patient endurance in times of affliction, and choosing faithfulness in
prayer are all decisions of the will trusting that the God who raised Jesus
from the dead can also change our circumstances because he hears our voice.”
Maybe knowing that He hears our voice is all we need to know to
find joy, to be patient and to continue our journey of faithfulness.
Have a blessed day!
