Monday
2 Corinthians 13:5
I examine myself to see if my faith is really genuine. I test myself. If I cannot tell that You, Jesus, are with me, it means I have failed the test.
Tuesday
2 Corinthians 13:6
I recognize that I have passed the test and am approved by You, God.
Wednesday
2 Corinthians 13:7
I pray to You, God, that I will not do anything wrong. I pray this, not to show that my ministry has been successful, but because I want to do right, even if I myself seem to have failed.
Thursday
2 Corinthians 13:8
My responsibility is never to oppose the truth, but to stand for the truth at all times.
Friday
2 Corinthians 13:9
I am glad to be weak, if I am really strong. What I pray for is my restoration to maturity.
