Strengthened by His might, patient with joy.

Colossians 1: 11 Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness.

Dear Father, Your glorious power gives us strength and in that strength, we can have patience with joy. Sometimes Father, days are long, sometimes trials are long and do not seem to have an end. Remind Michelle, remind all of us who call on the name of Jesus that the ability to hold on and hold out comes from you and that we can endure, not with a weary spirit but with joy knowing that you never leave or forsake us, and that you will carry us through. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen
