I Pray Not for the Quick

I Pray Not for the Quick

These words are from the following prayer:
 
Lord, I pray not for an emotional high, but for steadfastness of soul.
 
I pray not for happiness, but for joy.
 
I pray not for forgetfulness, but for the ability to forgive.
 
I pray not for the end of trials, but for grace in them.
 
I pray not for pleasure, but for purpose.
 
I pray not for the cessation of my loved one’s struggles, but for their growth through them.
 
I pray not for a roadmap of my life, but for a light for my path.
 
I pray not for visions and thunder, but for an ear to hear your still, small voice.
 
I pray not for the fire to be cooled, but for the crucible to purify.
 
I pray not for independence, but for brokenness of spirit.
 
In all these things, I pray not for the quick, nor for the shallow. I pray not for what I want, but for what I need. I will set my eyes beyond my own pain, beyond my own reason, beyond my own understanding, and seek you alone.
 
And in all these things, I humbly beg your grace, for you alone are the Author and Perfecter of my faith.
 
Amen.
