## Written prayer

Dear Lord, You are our light, our salvation, and our refuge. Yet in moments of fear and struggle, we lose sight of Your goodness and allow our hearts to be troubled. Like the Israelites in the wilderness, we grumble and doubt, forgetting the countless ways You have been faithful. We confess that when trials come, we often rely on our own strength instead of lifting our eyes to You. Forgive us for choosing complaints over trust, and cynicism over faith. When fear coils around our hearts like serpents in the desert, remind us that You alone are our healer and our life. Just as You provided for Your people in their wilderness, You are faithful to provide for us now. Give us the strength to trust in Your protection, the grace to rest in Your presence, and the courage to walk in Your light without fear. Lead us forward with steady hearts, remembering that You are with us always. Amen.
