Dear God,
You know my challenges, my weaknesses and my fears. Today, I start on a new journey to take back my life from where I find myself after seemingly spiraling out of control. I put myself and my fate in your hands and yet accept the responsibility that comes with knowing you have given me free will and a body to carry out the decisions I make.
I pray for your constant guidance, to be open to the strength that comes from you alone and for unwavering faith. What ever you require of me, let me do with joy and thanksgiving! Let me follow where ever you lead to be blessed with the opportunity to bring hope, truth, light and share the meaning of life to all I come in contact with. I pray that my every action will please you and serve where I am needed. Thank you for the lessons I am learning even though they are hard ones, and let me be forever in the arms of your grace and love.
Please give me peace when my heart pounds with anxiety, and help me to be still and know that you are God.
Amen.
