A Writer’s Prayer: Galatians 6:9

Lord,

I trust You. But sometimes it’s difficult. I believe You have given me a specific gift to use and my desire is to use it for Your glory. But Your timing is so different from mine. I think I’ve got everything all figured out, but then rejection or delays come  and I wonder what went wrong.

I know it’s natural to question “why?” and want to quit when things don’t go according to my plan. Give me the strength to continue forward in seasons of hardship and heartache. Help me trust that You’ll  show me the opportunities where the gifts You gave me can be used for the most good.

Signed,

An impatient apprentice
