A Prayer Not to Rush

God’s timing is always intentional and perfect.Today's prayer by Nicolet Bell looks at the story of Jesus healing the blind man at Bethsaida. Rather than healing instantly, Jesus chose a gradual process—first partial sight, then complete clarity. This miracle serves as a powerful illustration of how spiritual growth often unfolds over time. Just as the disciples’ understanding of Jesus deepened step by step, our own faith—and the faith of our children—develops progressively, not all at once.

Reference: Mark 8:22-26

Prayer: Jesus, thank You for walking with me daily through this journey of life. I know I need Your gentle reminders that developing maturity takes time for both me and my children. Give me patience as I work through the challenges of each day. Help me to release my frustration to You when I wish I were farther along in my spiritual walk than I am and to trust in Your faithfulness to transform me into Your likeness. In Your name, amen.
