Merciful Father,
I confess that I would like to give up, to quit, and to withdraw from (sport).
This process seems to be squeezing the life out of me and it assaults my will
to continue.
The rewards of (sport) have disappeared from my sight and the joy of
competition eludes me.
I need You to restore my passion for competition, to refresh my soul’s love of
(sport), and to renew my body’s strength.
I commit my heart to Your perseverance.
I commit my will to Your sovereign plan.
I commit my body to Your compassionate care.
I commit my life to Your divine purposes.
I will press on and will continually pray in Jesus' powerful
name,
Amen.
