God,
Thank you for the gift of fulfilling your prophecies over billions of years. I can only imagine when you told Abraham that you would make his family as many as the stars, he could not conceptualize what was meant by this. But you called him to walk in faith, and not by sight.
God thank you for the reality that you have given the holy spirit to all who have put their faith and trust in you.
Lord, as I walk in this wilderness season, just grasping for your light in the midst of the dark-- I trust you fully. You are at work in ways that I cannot imagine, just like Abraham could not see. Lord, please be my strength. It is only you that can display love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.
Self-control has been a challenge for me lately. I've been emotional eating a lot more. Gaining weight and not feeling great about my body.
God-- I pray for the week ahead with Ryan at Onsite. As we process the future and what your healing is to look like-- I ask that you would give me a deep heart for Ryan--that my interactions with him would be pure and loving and kind. God-- I just give you this time ahead of us.
Lord-- I don't feel strong enough to separate from Ryan. If it be your will for us to journey apart, I pray that you would be at work in his heart. God-- I know that you are capable of this. Whatever path you call us to, I pray that we would both be confident and supportive of whichever direction. God-- give us open hearts to truly listen for you and be willing to obey, even if it is ultimately is an outcome different than we thought.
I trust you. I will walk ahead confidently in you. Anxiety and fear have no place. I will not go ahead of you, but walk patiently in your leading and step.
