Father, when my courage seems so small and slips away, when sin seeks to pull me from Your path, Lord, remind me of these verses. I only need to trust in You, the One who keeps me safe and showers me with blessings, as You bring good things into my life, and provide for my every need.

You reward my tiny efforts and multiply them through Your strength as I simply love you and respond to you in faith. I want to be strong- in You and for You. Give me courage each day. When evil seems to abound and sin distracts me from Your Word, thank You that Your love abounds still more.

O love the Lord, all ye His saints: For the Lord preserveth the faithful, And plentifully rewardeth the proud doer. Be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart, All ye that hope in the Lord.

Psalm 31:23-24
