Daily Prayer - Reliance or resentment?

Good Thursday morning, my friends.
 
As we read of David's life in the Bible we see that through the trials and failures he endured - and they were many - he continually recognized his need for God.
 
And so it is for us.  If we did not have any struggles, we would never see our need for God. 
 
Can we, as David did, use these times to increase our reliance on our Creator rather than resent the circumstances?
 

Grace and peace be yours in abundance,
Bruce
 
 
 
Father, You know how often I ask You for blessings and yet I can't know the extent of Your limitless grace if I don't experience the lack from my human provisions.
 
I can't personally know Your divine strength unless I endure human weakness.
 
In the midst of multiple heartaches and distress You multiply Your peace and provision for my life.
 
Help me not to resent affliction, hardship or weakness since it is in those experiences that I more clearly recognize Your immeasurable grace for all that concerns me.
 
It is in the name of Jesus that I come to You in prayer thanking You for Your unlimited provision and immeasurable grace.
 
Amen.
