If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also

If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also
and if anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, hand over your coat as well. If anyone forces you to go one mile, go with them two miles. Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you. Matthew 5:39-42  

Father God, it is not easy to turn the other cheek when someone wrongs us, O God, but your Son Jesus showed us your perfect love by forgiving those who hurt him. Thank you for reminding me that I need to love as you love, to forgive as you forgive and to remember that I am your child above all things.Give me a loving and willing spirit, help me be patient, and walk humbly in the footsteps of my Savior, Jesus, I pray in his Holy name. Amen

The Lord establishes their steps

In their hearts humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps. Proverbs 16:9 Almighty God in heaven, Creator and giver of all, I know that we can make all the plans we want for our lives, but only you can establish our steps, only you decide what our future holds and what is better for us. Thank you for loving us so much, for knowing the desires of our hearts and wanting the best for us, O Lord. Help us to trust in you always, to know that we can make our plans, but we need to pray and leave everything in your hands and you will do what is best for us according to your perfect will, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial

Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him. James 1:12 Mighty and wonderful God in heaven, blessed be your Name in all of the earth, thank you for your amazing promises and wonderful words of love. Help me walk the path you have for me, O Lord, help me to stay strong and firm in faith always in every situation, that I may one day receive the crown of life you have promised, I pray in Jesus' name.
