Oh God, help me to rejoice in the hope that reminds me of the faith for eternal life. Allow my hope of spending eternity with you in heaven to guide my mind in how I handle the worries and tribulations of life. Allow me to be mindful of what’s important in life to be constant in prayer in order that that my prayers are a reminder of the hope that you give me because of your endless grace that is sufficient even when I fail in the expectations you have of me. My prayer, oh God, is that I can focus more on your love for me, your plans for me, and how I can be, in some way, a shining light to someone!
Allow your spirit which dwells within me to help remind me to rejoice in the hope that you provide for eternal life and allow your spirit to remind me to be patient and calm through the daily struggles and worries that can cause me to not be reminded of you and the eternal home. Allow your spirit to guide my mind in prayer to you constantly, as in pray without ceasing, in that my focus is right in what I do and what I say and what I think-please allow me to allow your spirit to intercede in my thoughts and then partition to you, Oh God.
