PRAYER
Thank you, loving God, for taking on the challenge of defeating evil and all that goes with it. Forgive me for allowing myself to get dragged down by the laggering trouble in the world. Rekindle deep within me the image of the conquering lamb so that I can remain strong and encouraged regardless of what comes my way. Amen.
