DAILY BREAD — Growing in Grace and Steadfast Character

ADVICE:
Make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. 2 Peter 1:5-7

PROMISE:
The upright are appalled at this; the innocent are aroused against the ungodly. Job 17:8

​PRAYER:
May your Holy Spirit lead me on level ground. Psalm 143:10

Heavenly Father, I bring my needs before You, trusting in Your wise and faithful care. Strengthen my faith so that it bears fruit in goodness, knowledge, and disciplined self-control. Form in me perseverance that does not waver under pressure, and cultivate a godliness that expresses itself in sincere affection and Christlike love.

Guard my heart with integrity in a world that often resists Your ways. Keep me upright in conviction and humble in spirit. Lead me by Your Holy Spirit on level ground—steady, faithful, and directed toward what truly matters. Grant discipline in pursuing worthy goals, courage in facing challenges, and wisdom in aligning every aim with Your greater purpose.

May my growth reflect Your grace at work within me.
In Jesus’ precious Name, I pray. Amen.

Have a blessed day,

​With Love,
Rev. Frank
