Dear LORD, I come before You today, confessing a truth I know too well: I am so tempted to waste my precious energy worrying about things that are beyond my control. I know better. I know this path leads only to exhaustion.
Instead, Lord, help me take that same energy—the energy I would spend on fear—and pour it into connecting with You. Let me seek Your Face and listen for Your Voice all the time.
Remove the noise of the "what ifs" and replace it with the presence of the "I AM."
I want to be ready to follow wherever You lead. Teach me to trust You to open up the way before I even see the path, just as You part the waters. Let my steps be guided by faith, not by foresight.
Humbly asked in the strong and powerful name of Jesus. Amen.
