My prayer is:
That I would have wisdom to discern the will of God, and respect for the warnings of Spirit-filled companions, along with my willingness to sacrifice my life for God;
And that I would follow the will of God, with much prayer, to know that I have good reasons for every action I take, knowing that the followers of Christ have many enemies on this earth.
