My Father in Heaven,
I know You are holy, far above all things—yet so close to me.
Let Your goodness shine in this world the way it already shines where You are.
Let Your will be done—not just in Heaven, but here… right here, in my life, in this broken world.
Shape this earth to reflect Your heart.
Give me what I need today.
Not just food for my body—but peace for my mind, strength for my soul, and love for my heart.
Forgive me… for the things I’ve done wrong, the words I’ve said that I regret,
the times I’ve doubted You or turned away.
And help me forgive the people who have hurt me—
even when it’s hard, even when it still hurts.
Guide me when I feel tempted…
When my emotions try to rule me, when the world pulls me off course—
lead me back to You.
Keep me safe from the evil that surrounds me,
and from the battles inside me too.
Because this life, this world, and all power and glory—
They belong to You.
Always have.
Always will.
Amen.
