OUR PRAYER
Dear God, we come before You with humble hearts. We ask You to guide our steps, shape our thoughts, and guard our spirits. Let this prayer draw us closer to Your will. When the path is unclear, lead us with Your wisdom. When we feel weak, strengthen our faith. We surrender every plan and desire to You, trusting that You will order our steps according to Your perfect purpose. Amen.
