Lord, I ask for a renewal of the courage I felt this morning. I can feel myself retreat into fear today. I’ve laid down and have barely gotten up after being so alive this morning. Please Lord, give me the strength to be brave and get up. In the face of uncertainty, I know I can do at least some small good. I know I must not be overwhelmed by the mass of my problems, or the persecution by my abusers, the uncertainty of a day with no clear direction. I know I must stand up and do something, however small, because it is better than doing nothing. Lord, I know lying down and doing nothing is a rebuke of faith - because if I had faith strong enough, I would get up and do the little that I can right now. To lie down and hide all day shows no faith in a better life. To lie down and give up shows no faith in your protection. To get up and do what can be done despite all of my fears is faith. Lord, help me practice faith today.

Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. Thank You for loving me, Jesus. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have. Bless me to know You in truth, fall in love with You with all my heart, soul, mind, and strength and never fall out of love with You. Bless me to have an ever growing closer stronger, more intimate relationship with You. Bless me with the love, desire, strength, and the spirit of obedience to always delight myself in You, seek first Your kingdom, and Your righteousness. Help and strengthen me God to always respect and obey You. Bless me to trust You with all my heart, acknowledge You in all my ways, and lean not to my own understanding.
