Better Not Ask for Patience - A Nighttime Prayer


The Lord does not delay his promise, as some understand delay, but is patient with you, not wanting any to perish, but all to come to repentance. – 2 Peter 3:9 (CSB) 

Please Pray:

Father God, thank You that we can beseech Your help in all things. When we ask for holy things, You lavish us with Your grace and holiness. Thank You for Your patience with us as we grow to be more like You. Show us Your mercy when we are weak. We love You, Lord, and pray for Your perfect timing and will in our lives. In Your Holy Name, Amen.
