As the semester is racing to a close and Greek continues to take tons of effort my professor’s prayer this morning struck a chord.
Lord, may we remember that it is by persevering that we learn to persevere and if our faith is never tried then it will never be refined like gold in the fire. I pray that these students would accept the responsibilities and challenges and struggles that you’ve placed on them not as happenstance or chance but from your sovereign hand designed to mature them and grow them. I pray that they would persevere but not just by putting their nose to the grind but by trusting in you for strength and grace. – Dr. Brian Vickers
