Then make me truly happy by agreeing wholeheartedly with each other, loving one another, and working together with one mind and purpose.
- Philippians 2:2

Father, I recognize that Your Word guarantees that Your Church will suffer for Christ's sake, but also that You will provide the encouragement and comfort we need. Strengthen us in unity of mind and purpose while we endure whatever hardships and persecutions You have ordained. Amen.
