It’s vital to realise how totally dependant we are on God, or else how will we be able to ask him for the help we need? The qualities we need to pray for are faith, hope and love, but love is by far the most important of the three.
Faith, hope and love
And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love
(1 Corinthians 13:13; NIV).
Father,
Please give me
The faith,
Hope,
And love
I need today,
For without your help
I can do nothing.
For without your help I can do nothing. This statement is so encouraging for me personally. God works through us, it’s not up to our own strength to do His work.
You are absolutely right, but what a long time it takes to learn this, I find. Even then, I continually revert to forgetting, and doing what I think is best. Maybe I will crack it just before I die!! All best wishes from Ruth XXXX
