We need daily spiritual vitamins! The daily pressures and concerns can sometimes beat us down. Sometimes it is tough to remain strong and brave. There are just moments when it is easier to back down and cry.
How good it is that God knows us very well. He knows that we always need strength, encouragement, and help. He has provided all these in his Word. Jesus tells a parable of the persistent widow (Luke 18:1-8) to his disciples to remind them that they need to always pray and not to lose heart (Luke 18:1).
What do you do when you feel down and weary? Grab your spiritual vitamins — the Word of God and prayer. Take it all to the Lord in prayer. As the hymn, What A Friend We Have in Jesus, says,
"O, what peace we often forfeit! O what needless pain we bear! All because we do not carry, everything to God in prayer. Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere? We should never be discouraged. Take it to the Lord in prayer."
Let us not lose heart. Let us pray and trust that God is at work even when we do not see it. A sincere prayer that seeks after God will let you experience the power of the Holy Spirit to keep you joyful, patient, strong, courageous, and enduring in every phase of your life.
Be strong and courageous. Don’t be afraid or scared of them, for Yahweh your God himself is who goes with you. He will not fail you nor forsake you.”

Pray without ceasing.
