DAY 1

MORNING PRAYER 
God,
Please help us through hard times when patience seems impossible, 
help us see that through you that everything will be okay. 
Help us find patience even in the toughest times 
and when that’s the last thing that we want to do. 
Thanks for the times when you have been patient with us,
 even when we haven’t been patient with you. 
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen
