DEAR GOD,

I COME TO YOU FEELING ANXIOUS AND FEARFUL, UNSURE OF WHAT MY FUTURE HOLDS. PLEASE HELP ME OVERCOME THESE FEELINGS AND RESTORE MY CONFIDENCE. GRANT ME COURAGE AS I SEEK NEW OPPORTUNITIES AND REMIND ME THAT I AM CAPABLE AND WORTHY. THANK YOU THAT YOU HAVE AN AMAZING PLAN IN MIND FOR ME - ONE TO GIVE ME RENEWED HOPE AND PURPOSE. I’M THANKFUL, WITH YOUR HELP, IT CANNOT PASS ME BY. AMEN.

DEAR GOD,
WHEN ANXIETY, WORRY, AND THE WEIGHT OF THE WORLD CROWD IN, I TURN TO YOU FOR PEACE, KNOWING ONLY YOU CAN PROVIDE IT. THANK YOU FOR CARING FOR ME AND GIVING ME THE STRENGTH TO ENDURE WHEN TRIALS COME. IN YOUR PRESENCE, I FIND REFUGE AND REST FROM THE STORM. HELP ME TO REMEMBER THAT YOU GO BEFORE ME IN EVERY BATTLE, FIGHTING FOR ME, AND THAT I CAN FIND SHELTER IN YOUR LOVE. AMEN.

DEAR GOD,
I ASK FOR YOUR STRENGTH AND PEACE AS I LET GO OF MY FEARS AND TRUST IN THE UNKNOWN. OPEN MY HEART AND MIND TO THE OPPORTUNITIES YOU’VE LAID OUT FOR ME, EVEN WHEN I CAN’T SEE THE FULL PATH. GUIDE ME THROUGH THE UNCERTAINTY, AND HELP ME EMBRACE THE JOURNEY WITH FAITH. THANK YOU FOR THE PEACE, HOPE, AND GROWTH YOU WILL BRING ALONG THE WAY. AMEN.

DEAR GOD,
I COME TO YOU FEELING DISCOURAGED, AND SOMETIMES LOST IN MY OWN DOUBTS. I RELEASE MYSELF FROM THE PRESSURE OF THINKING I KNOW BEST, AND I TRUST YOU TO RENEW MY THOUGHTS AND IDEAS. HELP ME TO SEE PAST MY LIMITATIONS AND REMIND ME THAT YOU KNOW ALL AND HAVE GOOD PLANS FOR ME. GRANT ME THE HOPE AND STRENGTH TO KEEP MOVING FORWARD, KNOWING YOU ARE ALWAYS WITH ME. AMEN.

DEAR GOD,
SOME DAYS IT FEELS LIKE I CAN’T KEEP GOING, BUT THANKS TO YOUR GOODNESS, I SEE HOPE AROUND ME IN THE SIMPLE BEAUTY OF THE WORLD—IN THE SUNSET, IN THE AIR I BREATHE. HELP ME TO REMEMBER THAT MY HOPE DOESN’T LIE IN MY OWN STRENGTH, BUT IN YOU. I AM GRATEFUL THAT I WAS NOT MADE TO DO THIS ALONE. YOU ARE FOR ME, NOT AGAINST ME, AND I CAN ALWAYS LEAN ON YOU. I KNOW I CAN CALL ON YOU AT ANY TIME, AND YOU WILL NEVER TURN ME AWAY. AMEN.

DEAR GOD,
I FEEL WEARY, BOTH FROM MY OWN STRUGGLES AND THE STRUGGLES OF MY LOVED ONE. THE PAIN AND DIFFICULTIES SEEM OVERWHELMING AT TIMES. I ASK FOR YOUR HEALING HAND, AND A MIRACLE TO RESTORE US. HELP ME TO REMEMBER THAT YOU ARE GOOD, EVEN THOUGH THIS WORLD IS FILLED WITH HARDSHIP. IN YOUR LOVING KINDNESS, YOU REMIND US THAT WHILE THE DAYS MAY BE DIFFICULT, THERE IS YOUR PROMISE OF ETERNITY IN PERFECT HEALTH WITH YOU. GIVE US STRENGTH, COMFORT, AND PEACE, KNOWING THAT YOUR LOVE WILL CARRY US THROUGH EVERY TRIAL. AMEN.
