Daily Prayer - The Importance of Being Earnst

Good Wednesday morning, my friends.
 
It is so easy to be glib in our conversations with each other, and even in our prayers.  But as you read the first line of this prayer, notice the word "earnest".  Be earnest as you speak with God today.
 
Grace and peace be yours in abundance,
Bruce
 
Lord Jesus, hear our earnest prayer this day.
 
May You, the supreme example of persevering love, help us to daily nurture persevering love in our human relationships.
 
May we be loyal to our partners, always looking to their interests above our own.
 
May Your grace help us to live above the fall-out that comes from inevitable trials.
 
Enable us to overcome daily temptations as we rely on You.
 
As we genuinely seek You we are confident that You will grant understanding, forbearance, and a persevering love that will last a lifetime until You call us to our eternal home where we will be richly and eternally rewarded.
