Thank You, Father, for giving Your Son Jesus to the world to overcome the world. In Him is courage and peace.

1 Verse: Verse 14. Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse.

1 Prayer: Dear Lord, I believe this is one of the most important things to keep in mind. Just as Jesus, there are people in this world who try to bring you down for several reasons. Instead of sinking down to their level and trying to get even, I pray that you give me the kind of strength Jesus had on the cross and show love to them. You love everyone and I pray that I can show that same love to others.
