Lord God, there is none besides You who I can trust with the secrets of my soul. Only You can remedy what troubles me. Only You can mend the broken parts of me that bleed without being seen. Let my injuries not hinder my progress. I long to draw closer to You. Though others put me to shame with biting words and harsh criticism, I will listen only for Your whispered grace. You are the God of my salvation. Beneath Your merciful intervention, I thrive. For the sake of Your goodness, I serve. On the heavenly foundation of Your steadfast love, I stand. You are good and You alone are faithful, Lord Jesus. Instruct me in the way. Hold me to the light. Amplify my faith as I lean into You with breathtaking awe. Your path is the only one that will truly lead me home. Keep my feet from straying off the narrow path. Make known to me the personal touch of Your love. Pluck my feet out of the net. When I am lonely and afflicted, I will turn to Your embrace, remembering the place I belong. Under the beauty and majesty of the Word in Psalm 3:7-8 and the authority of Christ, I bow in prayer.

Arise, O Lord!
    Save me, O my God!
For You strike all my enemies on the cheek;
    You break the teeth of the wicked. 
Salvation belongs to the Lord;
    Your blessing be on Your people!
Psalm 3:7-8, ESV
