Calm My Heart With Your Presence

Heavenly Father,

I come before You with the parts of my life that feel unsteady. You know the worries I push aside and the thoughts that stay with me long after the day is over. I ask You to draw close in a way that feels real, not distant. Let Your presence settle the heaviness I sometimes carry in silence. Remind me that You delight in me even when I feel far from steady, and that Your strength does not rise or fall based on how well I think I am doing.

Help me trust Your voice more than the pressure I feel. Bring a calmness to my heart that does not come from ignoring my challenges but from knowing You stand with me in the middle of them. Teach me to recognize the ways You speak peace into my life and help me respond with trust instead of tension. Surround my home, my decisions, and the people I care about with Your steadying hand.

Thank You for being a God who rejoices over His people and meets them with love instead of frustration. Let that truth take root in me today in a way that shapes how I think, how I lead, and how I move through the hours ahead.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
