and strengthen yourself with prayer.

to those who ask for one.

that you are trusting Christ as your Physician,
to do what he knows is best.

At the time of prayer, let the heart be closed
against the adversary, and open to God alone.

Accustom yourself to worship Him;
to offer him your heart from time to time
in the midst of your business;
even every moment if you can.
