## Written prayer

Dear God, there was a time when I felt the fear of fire — when my eternity was uncertain, and my life was slipping away. But You delivered me. You took my fainting feet and set me on a firm foundation. You placed me on a solid rock and replaced my cries of fear with a song of faith. Blessed is anyone who puts their trust in You. May all who seek You find peace and rest for their wandering souls. Before I sleep, fill my heart with gladness! I am redeemed and rescued by God Almighty. That truth is worthy of a song. I will love You for the rest of my days and pray for many more nights singing about Your grace. In Jesus’ Name, amen.
