Let us pray …hope

Heavenly Father,

In the midst of what my eyes see—trouble, confusion, and uncertainty—I come before You with a heart anchored in hope. Though the world around me may seem dark, I trust that Your light is shining brighter. Help me to see beyond my circumstances and to rest in Your promises.

“For we walk by faith, not by sight.” (2 Corinthians 5:7)

Lord, give me strength when my faith wavers. When doubts creep in, remind me that You are with me always, even when I can’t see the full picture. I believe that You are working all things for good, even in the trials I face.

“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” (Romans 8:28)

Father, You are my refuge and my strong tower. When I feel overwhelmed, help me to run to You and to place my trust in Your unchanging character. You are the God of hope, and I ask for Your peace to fill my heart and mind as I lean into You.

“The LORD is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge.” (Psalm 18:2)

Teach me to trust You more deeply, knowing that Your plans for me are good and that Your faithfulness endures through every season. I may not understand why I face certain battles, but I choose to believe in Your goodness. Fill me with hope that is unwavering, as I fix my eyes on Jesus, the author and finisher of my faith.

“Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith.” (Hebrews 12:2)

Thank You, Lord, for being my constant in a world full of change. I trust You with my future, and I place my hope in Your eternal promises.

In Jesus’ name,

Amen.
