Have patience with all things, but chiefly have patience with yourself. Do not lose courage in considering your own imperfections but instantly set about remedying them. Every day begin the task anew. –Saint Francis de Sales

Remind me, Lord, to give my worries to You and to trust You when I do.

Lord, You have redeemed me and claimed me and given me a strength that is not my own.

Dear God, help me to trust You wherever I wander.

Lord of all times and circumstances, thank You for life lessons from the past.

Father, let me seek You as eagerly as I seek those here on earth who love me.

Father, a positive attitude is one of the greatest spiritual gifts. Help me to remember: Praise! Praise! Praise!
