prayer

God, Help me trust You to do what You have already done. You have made
ways for me when there were no ways. You have defeated enemies that
were unconquerable. You have stood for me when I couldn't stand for
myself. You have loved me and believed in me when I didn't love or
believe in myself. And You will always do those things. Help me
believe in You like You believe in me. In Jesus' name, Amen.

From Paul

I wrote a letter to the church, but Diotrephes, who loves to be in
charge, will not recognize our authority. (3 Jn 1:9 ISV)

Prayer: LORD, some people love to be in charge and enjoy having
authority over others. When I encounter such a one, help me avoid
being drawn into a conflict with them. I need Your acceptance, but
the acceptance of others is optional. If someone rejects me, help me
just move on and allow you deal with them as You see fit. In Jesus'
name, Amen.
