Lord, help me reject the idea that people will fix my brokenness. I want to find a way to heal on my own. I want to find a way to heal with You.

“

Even when I am stubborn, even when I am obnoxious, I hope you always know that I am a human in need of your blessing.

“

Lord, guide me as I walk through this challenging journey.

“

Listen closely. He tells us He’s got this. He’s got you. 

“

Sometimes God says no because he wants you to delve deeper into faith, into understanding the universe, into believing in him even if you don’t always agree or understand why he does things the way he does.

“

I lead with my heart and Your spirit, encouraging me to live my life by Your virtue, Your grace alone.

“

Let me hear Your voice amidst the noises of the world.

“

I am not one to doubt God or his power, but sometimes I worry that He isn’t listening.

“

Thank you for art and museums.

“

Lord, remind him daily of the unconditional love You have for him. Give him the strength to cast aside all his burdens onto You.
