Prayer
Heavenly Father,
I come before You with a heart full of gratitude and a soul yearning for Your guidance. In the midst of daily chaos and uncertainty, I ask for Your divine direction. Guide my steps, Lord, in the choices I make and the paths I choose to walk. Grant me the wisdom to heed Your voice, the courage to follow where You lead, and the patience to wait when necessary.
Help me to discern the right opportunities from distractions. Strengthen my faith so that I may trust Your plan even when I don’t fully understand it. Teach me to seek Your counsel in moments of confusion and doubt, and to lean on Your everlasting arms when I feel weak.
Illuminate my path with Your light, dear God, so that I may walk confidently in Your purpose for me. Bless my endeavors, my relationships, and my decisions, aligning them with Your divine will. I surrender my anxieties and fears to You, knowing that Your direction is always perfect and Your love for me is boundless.
In Jesus’ name, I pray.
Amen.
