A prayer for the one who needs patience

Father in heaven, you are amazing. 

May your kingdom come here on earth, and in my heart, and may I not resist it when it looks differently than I expected.

I need to eat, but I need to trust you more. Help me to accept your provision for today, and not try to manufacture a plan for tomorrow. 

May your love cover where I’ve gone wrong and may I extend that grace to others, too. 

The world can be a scary place. Be gentle with me; keep me in your love. 

You can do all this and more, and you will do it, and you are doing it, and I love that about you. 

a prayer for the one who feels behind
