Today’s prayer

Written prayer

Heavenly Father, as You appeared to Job and spoke to him as a Father to a child, I thank You that You desire to speak to me in the same manner when I lose sight of Your glory and perfect ways. I now know that my lack of understanding doesn’t take away from Your sovereignty, but instead it causes me to lean into Your presence more so I can receive the answers my heart longs for. I confess that even though I'm in pain I will not give myself permission to doubt Your plans for my life. You are the God of the Universe, the Creator of all things and the One who puts air in my lungs. Therefore, I will acknowledge You and acknowledge that all Your ways are perfect and flawless. Through the evidence of my past victories and through the life of Job, I know that if You allow something to exit my life, it's only because You are making room for more!

In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
