But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.
Heavenly Father, I come before You in the name of Your one and only Son Jesus. I thank You that You are the one who keeps me from stumbling and You Lord keeps me from being deceived. With great joy I come before You as You alone are wise, having dominion and power both now and forever. By Your Holy Spirit may I continue to cultivate my love for Christ. May I show mercy to others in the faith who have spiritual or physical needs. May simple acts of service help to build them up in the most holy faith. You God are always with me guiding me to brothers and sisters who need tender care and patience to help them grow in You. Sometimes drastic measures are needed to rescue them from the temptations to sin. Grant me strategies, wisdom and caution to prevent me from getting caught up in the sin that caused them to fall. May Your children run well and not be hindered from obeying the truth. Let our labors not be in vain and our suffering in tribulations not cause weakness to fall into temptation. You, Lord delivers us from evil. For the steps of a good person are ordered by You. Help us to apply ourselves the best we can today with the awareness that You stand ready to help. I have been young, and now am old yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken nor Your descendants begging for bread. You are ever merciful and lend and You bless You children with the Bread of Life. Amen.
Thanks for your faithfulness.
