LORD Jesus, Please help me focus on enjoying You and all that You are to me. Even though my circumstances often scream for resolution, even though the noise of my problems demands my attention, I choose to fix my eyes on You.
Help me refuse to obsess about my problems and the strategies I think I need to fix them. I lay down the burden of being the solver. I lay down the anxiety of the "how."
Instead, Lord, affirm my trust in You. Teach me to wait hopefully in Your Presence. Let my waiting not be passive, but active—an act of faith that says, "You are good, and You are working."
Open my eyes to watch what You will do. Let me see Your hand moving in the silence. Let me find my joy not in the solution, but in the Savior.
I humbly pray this in Your powerful and faithful name. Amen.

The Kingdom says: "Rest in Me. Watch Me work. Enjoy Me while I do."
