“Lord, if I live a godly life I will be persecuted (2 Timothy 3: 12) and yet I will also lead people to glorify God (Matthew 5: 16; 1 Peter 2: 12). I confess that neither of these things is happening to me! And so, Lord, make me more godly until I am both more offensive and attractive to the world. Amen.”
