You are a lily among thorns. And He sees you blooming.

This prayer is for the woman who’s been asking, “Is it okay to slow down?” Who’s been fighting to grow in a world that celebrates hustle over holiness. Who’s felt hidden, overlooked, or unsure if she’s behind, when in fact, she’s becoming.

In this Heard in Heaven moment, Rae Irelan speaks into the spirit of the woman who longs to trust again—her pace, her process, her planting. Drawing from the sacred image of the lily in Song of Songs, Rae prays over the woman who’s been set apart to flourish in the quiet places. This is a prayer of deep surrender, of laying down timelines, letting go of performing, and allowing yourself to root where God has planted you.

You are not spinning. You are not striving. You are a lily, clothed in grace, blooming in divine timing.

This prayer speaks to:

The woman who fears she’s been forgotten

The one who’s tired of chasing worth through effort

The heart who craves permission to bloom slowly

The leader who wants to trust her hidden season

The daughter who is done performing and ready to root

Listen to this prayer when you need to remember:

God clothes the lilies—and He clothes you, too

Blooming doesn’t require a spotlight

Your worth is not in your performance, it’s in your placement

His whisper is louder than the world’s pressure

You are set apart, seen, and safe, flourishing by His Spirit

You are a lily among thorns. Not hurried. Not hidden. Holy. Becoming. Blooming. By grace, for His glory.
