Lord God my Father,
Develop in me the courage to be persistent with you in my prayers and actions. May I be strong in your eyes, strong enough to be used for great things on your behalf. May I be forgiving to others and my self to grow whole under your authority to do your will without compromise.
In Jesus name I pray,
Amen
