To Be Stronger

O, do not pray for easy lives.  Pray to be stronger men.  Do not pray for tasks equal to your powers.  Pray for powers equal to your tasks.
—    Phillip Brooks
From:  “Going Up To Jerusalem“
[This reminds me of the lines in “The Para’s Prayer” found off my Poems page…
“Once and for all
Let me be sure to have them always,
For I will not always have the courage
To ask you for them.“
