Prayer of the Day

Father, You promised that if anyone lacks wisdom, they may simply ask, and You will give it — generously, and without scolding.

So I am asking.

Give me wisdom for today's choices, the big one on my mind and the small ones I won't see coming. Help me know what matters from what merely shouts.

Make me quick to listen and slow to speak. Keep me teachable when I would rather be right.

And when I know the wise thing, give me the backbone to actually do it.

In Jesus' name, Amen.

Lord, give me sleep tonight — real rest, the kind You designed my body to need and my heart to receive.

Slow my breathing. Loosen my shoulders. Take the day's noise out of my ears.

You give sleep to those You love, so I'll stop trying to earn it and simply receive it.

Watch over me until morning.

In Jesus' name, Amen.
