A Prayer for a Fresh Week

Father God, I come to You at the start of this week, and I want to be honest with You first: I carry a lot. My family, my marriage, my dad's ministry, Saturday's launch — it's all on my heart at once. So today I don't just want strength, I want to understand what I'm supposed to do with it all. Show me what's mine to carry and what I can hand to You, because I've been picking up things that were never meant for me to hold alone.

Lord, go with me into this week. As Saturday's online service gets closer, calm my nerves and remind me why this matters — not the platform or the numbers, but that Your truth reaches someone who needs to hear it. Let everything I set up, every post, every prayer I write, be led by You and not by my worry.

And God, I ask You for my home too. Bless my husband today. Soften our words toward each other so we speak with patience, and teach us to listen before we react. I don't want to just get through the week with the people I love — I want to feel closer to them, and to You, when it's over. Put Your hand over my family and keep us grounded in what's good.

Thank You for a new beginning today. Walk with me through every part of it. In Jesus' name, amen.
