Prayer in dark times
Dear Jesus
your word says or I should say you said you are gentle and lowly of heart and
since all the fruits of the Spirit are the
main part of your character then you are full of joy, peace, patience,
kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. And when we
break down the word “Love” we
find that; 4 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or
boast; it is not arrogant 5 or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not
irritable or resentful; 6 it does not rejoice at wrongdoing,
but rejoices with the truth. 7 Love bears all things, believes
all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 (ESV) Also James 3:17
(ESV) says; But the wisdom from
above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason (easily entreated),
full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere. And since this wisdom is from above then it
describes the way in which God deals with me.
Therefore, I can fully
lean on you Jesus, even though sometimes I think you are irritable with me when
I am not doing …. Or I am doing…….
I know that this is not true, but I have a hard time knowing the reality
of your great love for me in times of Darkness.
Today help me see that your love bears all things and is longsuffering
and you are easily entreated (Matt 7:7) by me.
