Praying for Deliverance

When we pray to the Father in light of our suffering and anguish, pray for the strength to endure the suffering (rather than to be spared the suffering) and the faith to see beneath the suffering and recognize the opportunity within that is meant for the good of our soul and others.

The anguish-filled prayer of Jesus at the Garden of Gethsemane is a perfect example of this.
