"For the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Against such things there is no law." - Galatians 5:20
God, you know that I desperately need these things right now, especially love, patience, gentleness, and kindness, toward my dad. Please also help me to be slow to anger, and help me approach things with wisdom and tact, like Daniel when he approaches King Nebuchadnezzar. If Daniel can approach a king that can take his life in a blink of the eyes with such a confidence, knowing that you are with him always, why am I troubled? Yet you know my weakness, my fear, and the wound in my scared heart that still remembers the pain and tension. Lord, please help me do the right thing, with confidence and humility. Thank you for the challenge.
