Holy One, teach me to
wait patiently for you,
even when you seem to
be hiding your face.
Teach me patience as
I wait, hoping in you.
Help me support my
faith with goodness,
knowledge,
self-control, endurance,
godliness, mutual
affection, love.
And do not bring me
to the time
of trial.

are you sleeping? Get up and pray that
you may not come into the time of trial."
