Patient Endurance

May the Lord lead your hearts into a full understanding and expression of the love of God and the patient endurance that comes from Christ. (2 Thessalonians 3:5 NLT)

Today's prayer topics:

• It's one thing to endure, quite another to patiently endure. This spiritual characteristic will require prayer and lots of it.
• Patient endurance, not contrived, but emanating from Jesus Christ, our loving Lord - pray for it.
• When the pressure seldom lets up, only the love of God can bring relief so pray for us to keep turning our struggles toward the one who knows what to do with them.

Never give up unless its praise we give up to God; never give in except to give in to him.
