“A Prayer For Endurance”

Father, when I’m distracted from my goal or tempted to withdraw from the spiritual race, impress this biblical truth upon my heart: It’s not the one who runs the swiftest nor the one who shines for a day, but the one who endures to the end, the same shall be saved. May I be found faithful not only when celebrating victories but also on the days and seasons of my life when I am simply plodding on. It is only by Your grace, through my surrendered will, that I can accomplish this. Amen.
