Today’s prayer

Written prayer

Jesus, as I open my eyes to greet this day, I am in awe of Your great love for me. I’m in awe of everything that You sacrificed, everything that You endured, everything that You overcame to be with me. I can feel Your face shining on me. I can feel Your delight in me. Sometimes it seems like I’m surrounded by a sea of problems. But no matter the size or the strength of the waves coming toward me, I know that by the time they reach me, they will subside—because when You speak, the wind and the waves obey. They fall silent before You. When it looks like I’m sinking, I know I can call on You and You will rescue me. When everything around me seems to be swirling in chaos and confusion, I will fix my eyes on You—the One who never changes. I will take comfort in knowing that You are the Prince of Peace, as well as the author and perfector of my faith. You will give me courage and strength. You will give me hope—and joy in the journey. And one day, You will lead me safely home. Thank You, Jesus. In Jesus’ name,, Amen.
