A Prayer for Trust and Obedience
Heavenly Father,Your ways are higher than human understanding. Give the strength to trust and follow Your leading, even when the path is unclear.

This moment revealed not only Jesus’ power…

A Prayer for Open Hearts
“Lord, help us not to be like the people of Nazareth, who were too familiar with You to recognize Your voice. Soften our hearts and open our ears to Your truth. Remove any pride or assumptions that keep us from seeing where You are at work. Give us faith that listens, trusts, and obeys. May…
