Prayer: Accepting the Call for Endurance & Faith


Lord God Almighty, Who was, and is and is to come, Giver of all Good Things, I give You praise for You are great and greatly to be praised. You have led me out to a large place and have filled my heart with songs of rejoicing. May I accept Your call for endurance and faith, even as the saints of old heard Your call and responded. Thank You for their examples, their stories. Thank You for being the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob; the God of Billy, Susan and Shadrach. Thank You for Your covenant of love and grace. All wisdom and power and glory and honor belong to You both now and forevermore. Amen (Psalm 50.23; Rev. 13.10)
