For Determination

Dedicated Savior,
Although you faced opposition and obstacles from both your enemies and those close to you during your life, nothing deterred you from carrying out your goal of securing our salvation. You were resolute. You were determined.

So often, we are not. When we encounter a challenge while trying to accomplish something, we get frustrated and give up. When the goal we set out to achieve is much harder to reach than we anticipated, we change our mind. The support we counted on suddenly isn’t there anymore, and we blame others for when we fail to see something through to the end. Give us your determination and resolve. Make us confident that you are able to reward our perseverance. Help us finish strong, grant us the satisfaction of getting things done, and let our efforts be a blessing to others. 

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

For Your Grace and Guidance in this New Year

God of Grace,
On this first day of a new year, as I look ahead, I see so many unknowns. There are plans in place and events scheduled that excite and energize me when I consider them. But there will also be transitions and changes that leave me uncertain and uneasy. Remind me that you already know their outcome, and that you attach to them your promise to bring good out of everything for my benefit and blessing. Therefore, let my goals and plans for the year ahead be less about my desire to be in control and on top of everything, and more about developing my relationship with you and solidifying my trust in you. Take my faith to new heights this year, and use every part of me to honor you and build up your kingdom through my service to others. Pour into me so that I am overflowing and able to pour into others as I strive to carry out your calling for me to make disciples.

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
