Put on the new self—created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness.—Ephesians 4:24 (TLB)
Sometimes a burst of spiritual growth happens overnight. But most times, it is a gradual process that takes patience and dedication. Don’t be discouraged if you feel like your faith has hit a stumbling block. Maybe you are struggling with doubt, or having trouble committing to a prayer time. Relax, God isn’t in a hurry.
Heavenly Father, help me to be patient with my faith and to forgive myself when I fall. I will always come back to You for comfort, encouragement and peace.
Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.—Matthew 5:11–12 (NIV)
For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.—Psalm 139:13–14 (NIV)
