Good endurance training...
"Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing." -- James 1:2-4
So, God, please teach me to 'count it all joy'...please grow in me steadfastness, please mature me through them...
"May you be strengthened with all power, according to his glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy," -- Colossians 1:11
God please strengthen me with your power, for joyous endurance and patience...
Perhaps challenging times are good quizzes for bigger trials -- loved ones' deaths, possible nursing home residence -- we might encounter in the future.

Remembering He had the power to raise Himself from the dead---and that same great power is at work in you, whether you feel it or not--May God strengthen you with His strong power, easy for Him, impossible for us--to give you joyous endurance & patience.
Thanks mom.
