Perseverance in Relationships
"Love bears all things."
— 1 Corinthians 13:7
God of love,
Relationships are sometimes difficult. There are moments of tension, disagreement, disappointment. I am tempted to give up when things get complicated.
Give me perseverance in the relationships that matter. The ability to go through disagreements without breaking, to talk rather than flee, to seek solutions rather than give up.
Help me distinguish toxic relationships that should be left and precious relationships worth fighting for. May I invest in the latter with patience and love.
Amen.

Reflection
Is there an important relationship going through a difficult period? How could you invest in that relationship today?
For all relationships going through difficulties.
