Lord, today . . .
I’ll be exercising
for my faith can use
some real stretching.
I’ll be doing,
some strength training
so towards the mark
I can keep straining.
My perseverance,
seems a little wobbly
so I’ll be working on
a more trusting strategy.
I’ll need to do,
some heavy lifting
so my Bible I’ll pick up
to keep me from drifting.
My endurance,
I will be addressing
so into the goal . . .
I can keep on pressing.
Lord, today . . .
my faith I’m exercising
and I need Your Spirit
to do the energizing!
~~~~~
“I press toward the mark
for the prize of the high
calling of God in Christ Jesus.”
