Stand Strong

Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart.

(Proverbs 3:3 NIV)

Lord, how I long to stand strong in faith! I read of great people of faith and question my courage. Would I, if my life depended on it, say, “Yes, I believe in God?” I’ve said I would. I pray I would. Lord, prepare me for any opportunity to stand firm for what I know to be true.

I am not afraid … I was born to do this.           
Joan of Arc
