Your concerns for today
Help me to think positively about my distress as it comes in any form, Father God, because I know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; character, hope and hope won’t disappoint. [Romans 5:3-5]
3. Admit: “…Forgive us our sin as we forgive those who sin against us…”
