Prayer:
Heavenly Father, as I come before You today, I acknowledge my deep need for Your presence in my life. Jesus, I realize that nothing I do has any lasting value without Your guidance and support. I confess that there have been times when I have tried to navigate this journey on my own, only to find myself overwhelmed and lost. In those moments, I hear Your gentle reminder that You are always with me, ready to bear my burdens and lead me through the storms. Thank You for Your infinite love which reassures me that I am never alone in this world. I pray now for a greater awareness of Your presence in my day-to-day life. Help me to recognize the signs of Your work around me and to seek You in every situation I face. Teach me to draw strength from Your Word and find comfort in times of uncertainty. Fill my heart with the knowledge that I can’t live without You, and instill a desire within me to cultivate a deeper relationship with You each day. There are so many distractions that vie for my attention, Lord, but help me to prioritize my time with You, turning my focus away from anxiety and concern, towards trust and faith. Let Your peace wash over me, quieting my spirit and renewing my strength. Fill me with the courage to bring my uncertainties to You, knowing You hear every cry of my heart. Remind me continually that with You, all things are possible and that my life finds its true purpose when I live in Your light. Thank You for Your promises that assure me of Your love and provision, and help me to reflect that love to others. In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen.
