If your difficulties are longstanding, try kneeling

If we would talk less and pray more about them,
things would be better than they are in the world:
at least, we should be better enabled to bear them.

Do More

"Do more than exist ... live.
Do more than touch ... feel.
Do more than look ... observe.
Do more than read ... absorb.
Do more than hear ... listen.
Do more than think ... ponder.
Do more than talk ... say something."
- John H. Rhoades

"To do righteousness and justice is more
acceptable to the LORD than sacrifice."
Proverbs 21:3

"Jesus replied:
"'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.'
This is the first and greatest commandment.
And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'"
Matthew 22:37-39

Lord let me win the race of this life
and give that I use the correct gears to my goal.
Give me enough inspiration, strength and love for people, animals and plants around me
to treat them with goodness and glory of your name.

For those who make other choices

“If you were from the world of humankind, the world of humankind would certainly have affection for their own. But, because you are not from the world of humankind–but rather I chose you [apostles] out of the world of humankind–for this reason the world of humankind continues to hate all of you.” (Joh 15:19 MHM)

 “For a certainty the time is coming when they will no longer tolerate healthy teaching, but instead they will appoint their own teachers to suit their fancy and to tickle their ears. They will turn away for sure from listening to the Truth, and instead they will turn aside to myths. As for you, [Timothy], always be sober-minded in everything–be willing to suffer difficulties, do the work of an evangelist, completely fulfill your ministry.” (2Ti 4:3-5 MHM)

 “And now because you do not continue running with them in their headlong rush into a licentious course, they think you the strange ones and speak abusively of you.” (1Pe 4:4 MHM)
