The prayer
A prayer to pray now
Father, Your Word says that even Jesus learned obedience through suffering. He went through hard things, too.
So I should not be surprised that I am learning through this stretch. I did not have this patience before. The willingness to be stopped again and again is being shaped in me by being stopped again and again.
I would have picked a different classroom. But this is the one I am in: the chair, the baby, the long night.
Help me stop fighting the lesson and start receiving it. Jesus learned this way too. I am in good company in the obedience that comes through small suffering.
Amen.
