1 Chronicles 4:10
… “Oh, that you would bless me indeed and expand my territory! Please be with me in all that I do, and keep me from all trouble and pain!” And God granted him his request.
“The Prayer of Jabez”. It is such a precious gem.
The poor guy’s name means PAIN.
There have been times when I could relate to that very well!
In spite of that (or maybe because of it) he prays this elegantly simple but surprisingly profound prayer.
PROTECT me
CHALLENGE me
BLESS me
Working to make this a regular prayer to start my day!
