Prayer for Courage, Strength and Wisdom

Almighty eternal Father!
As I pass through this life,
I humbly ask for three gifts:
Strength, courage and wisdom:
Strength that I may be victorious over any and all challenges set before me.
Courage that I may press onward resolutely despite the odds.
Wisdom’s guidance in all my endeavors,
whether they bring me good fortune or ill,
such that I may learn their lessons.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost.
Amen.

Conviction

One of the hardest truths for a man to grapple with is the sure knowledge that he may be the only one, other than the Lord himself, who shares his convictions.  I press on undaunted because I know the stakes.
