A Prayer

Lord, I pray not for tranquility, nor that my tribulations may cease; I pray for your spirit and your love, that you grant me strength and grace to overcome adversity; through Jesus Christ. Amen.
-A Prayer by Girolamo Savonarola (1452-1498)

    Amen.

    Thanks for starting this blog, Scott.
    I commented on Nigel's quote on scientism and reductionism. I also commented on the article of Financial Risk and Moral Responsibility.
    You've found some good material to reflect on
    thanks again.

    Scott,
    excellent material for review. I believe that often times we get into the habit of asking for adversity to be removed when we should be praying for strength to get through it in a manner that is pleaseing to Him.
    Nice to hear from you.
