Pray for me
I mean, secondly: commend me to God in all your prayers. Wrestle with him in my behalf, that he would speedily correct what he sees amiss and supply what is wanting in me. In your nearest access to the throne of grace (Hebrews 4:16), beg of him who is then very present with you that my heart may be more as your heart — more right both toward God and toward men; that I may have a fuller conviction of things not seen, and a stronger view of the love of God in Christ Jesus; may more steadily walk by faith, not by sight (2 Corinthians 5:7), and more earnestly grasp eternal life. Pray that the love of God and of all mankind may be more largely poured into my heart; that I may be more fervent and active in doing the will of my Father who is in heaven; more zealous of good works (Titus 2:14), and more careful to abstain from all appearance of evil (1 Thessalonians 5:22).

5. I mean, secondly, commend me to God in all thy prayers, wrestle with him in my behalf, that he would speedily correct what he sees amiss, and supply what is wanting in me. In thy nearest access to the throne of grace, beg of him, who is then very present with thee, that my heart may be more as thy heart, more right both toward God and toward man: that I may have a fuller conviction of things not seen, and a stronger view of the love of God in Christ Jesus: may more steadily walk by faith, not by sight, and more earnestly grasp eternal life. Pray, that the love of God and of all mankind, may be more largely poured into my heart; that I may be more fervent and active in doing the will of my Father which is in heaven; more zealous of good works, and more careful to abstain from all appearance of evil.
