A Prayer for Prosperity, Protection, and Peace
Heavenly Father,
We do not always get it right in this life.
We hide behind brave smiles, while our hearts carry more than words can hold.
There are moments when emotion floods us, when the weight is heavy,
yet even then, You remain.
I have tasted love in its purest form,
and I have seen its fragility.
Life is fleeting, here for a moment, gone like breath on glass
and so I come not for myself alone, but for those You have placed in my care.
There is a refuge where we are made safe,
a dwelling place under the shelter of the Most High.
From the soles of my feet to the tips of my fingers,
I offer every breath, every step, every intention to You.
Precious Lord, hear my prayer.
I ask that my family and my friends prosper, not only in wealth,
but in wisdom, in health, in peace of mind, and in purpose.
Let their paths be steady, their work be fruitful,
and their hearts remain guarded from despair.
May what they build not crumble.
May what they plant take root.
May doors open where none seemed possible,
and may they have the courage to walk through them.
My life is not my own.
To You I belong.
I place myself, and those I love, in Your hands.
Use us well.
Guide us rightly.
Keep us humble, grateful, and strong.
Amen.
