Begin by placing yourself in God’s presence.

This week, we have learned of the silent presence of God, the need to trust, the confidence to call out.

Give thanks for a God who leans towards us, who offers relationship, reconciliation and healing.

Even in hard moments, there is grace.

What small moments this week brought beauty, kindness, or grace?

Where did you feel loved or supported, even in struggle?

Look at the moments this week that were hard: where there was fear, doubt, or anxiety?

Speak to God honestly about these times.

Were you tempted to rely only on yourself or act out of fear rather than trust in the Lord?

Invite the Holy Spirit to show you this gently, without shame.

Place into God’s hands all that you want to entrust to God today.

Ask God for the grace to walk in faith. Pray for a heart anchored in His love.

Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit.

As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be

World without end

Amen
