Strength & Courage
Galatians 6:9
Pray with me, when you're tempted to quit. Lord, I am weary. The road is long. Let me not grow weary in doing good. For in due season — if I do not give up — I will reap. Steady my feet. Strengthen my heart. One more step, with You. Amen.
“And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.”
— Galatians 6:9
Paul wrote Galatians 6:9 near the close of a letter largely spent correcting a church pulled toward legalism, but he ends with practical exhortation about everyday endurance: 'let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.' The phrasing acknowledges that weariness is real and expected on the way to a harvest, not a sign of failure. The promise is conditional only on not giving up — the reaping comes 'in due season,' on a timeline not fully in our control. This is a companion prayer for the exact moment willpower runs out, when quitting feels easier than one more step forward.
A new voiced prayer each day — for the morning, the commute, the sleepless 3 a.m.
