Dear Father,

Thank you for today. It was hard in some ways, but I trust in your purpose for me and the things I encounter because I know it’s for good and there are lessons to be learned. Please forgive me for opening my heart up to heartache time and time again when I should be guarding it. Please forgive me for falling and for failing. Thank you for catching me and giving me your word that shows me I’m not a reflection of what is given to me or withheld on this earth.

Thank you for seeing me and loving me, mess and all. Thank you for everything you provide for me and I know that you will provide in every way, not just in the physical but in the emotional and spiritual.

Thank you for a beautiful day that I was able to witness your beauty in nature.

Tonight, Father, I am weary and weak and tired and cannot understand a lot of things. Please just help me give it over to you and not worry about understanding and not worry about the pain. Take it from me and fill me with your love and remind me I am your daughter and you will not let me come to harm. You will hold my heart in your gentle hands and not allow harshness to touch it. It’s cracked and broken and fragile and I trust only you with it.

Help me to not give it over so freely, but to seek your guidance first.

Help me to forgive and most of all to forgive myself.

I love you Father, and I need you so much.

Please let me rest soundly tonight and rise to a new day tomorrow!

In Jesus name, Amen 🙏 ♥️
