Created with a Purpose: Living Out Your God-Given Design - A Nighttime Prayer

“For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” —Ephesians 2:10 (NIV)

Please Pray:

Heavenly Father, you know how much we long to hear Your voice and follow Your will. Sometimes, the choices seem overwhelming, and we fear making mistakes. Please remind us that You guide us with a gentle heart and spirit, and at the end of the day, You are still in control. Your will is not a dot, but it will be fulfilled within us, no matter where we go, what we do, or who we become. We love and thank You, Lord. Amen.
