🙏 A Prayer for You

Lord, for every listener who feels overwhelmed, exhausted, or at the end of themselves, I ask that You meet them right where they are. Remind them that Your grace is enough, Your strength is made perfect in their weakness, and You are already at work in their story. Bring peace, clarity, and hope into every place that feels heavy.
Amen.
