Praying from 2 Corinthians 11:20. Themes: Endurance, Humility, Persecution
Dear Lord, I come before you today and ask for your strength and guidance. Help me to bear with those who bring me into bondage, those who devour me, those who take me captive, those who exalt themselves, and those who strike me on the face. Give me the wisdom to know when to stand up for myself and when to turn the other cheek. Help me to forgive those who have wronged me and to show them your love and grace. Thank you for your never-ending mercy and for always being by my side. Amen.
