Can Flowers Fuel Your Faith? - A Nighttime Prayer


    “And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?” — Matthew 6:28-30 (ESV)

    Please Pray:

    Loving Father, I’m so grateful that Jesus made it clear that You care about even my most basic needs. You don’t expect me to white-knuckle through difficult circumstances, grasping for control of the outcome with my own intervention. I recognize that Your ways are not mine, and only You know what I truly need to persevere in life’s storms. Help me to trust You completely and let go of control over every detail of my life so I can experience the rest You want to provide for me. Thank you for Your compassionate desire to release me from anxiety’s grip by inviting me to trust You with everything I need. In Jesus’ name, amen.
