A prayer for endurance, courage, clarity, and hope when life feels heavy or uncertain.

Difficult seasons can make even normal responsibilities feel exhausting. Strength does not always look like confidence. Sometimes it looks like getting through the next hour, asking for help, or making one necessary decision.

A prayer for strength

May I have enough strength for what is in front of me today. May I know what deserves my attention and what can wait. May courage meet the places where I feel afraid, and may support reach me before I become too tired to ask for it.

Make the next step smaller

You do not have to carry the whole future at once. Pray for the next conversation, the next appointment, the next decision, or simply the ability to rest tonight.

You do not have to carry it alone.

Let someone pray with you.
