“The world says, "Rely on yourself," but You say, "Cast your cares on Me, and I will sustain you" (1 Peter 5:7). I trust in Your care. The world says, "Trust people to solve your problems," but You say, "Some trust in chariots, but we trust in the name of the Lord" (Psalm 20:7). You are my rock and salvation. The world says, "You're not good enough," but You say, "You are fearfully and wonderfully made" (Psalm 139:14). I thank You for creating me in Your image. The world says, "Revenge is sweet," but You say, "Vengeance is Mine, I will repay" (Romans 12:19). Help me to forgive and let go of grudges. The world says, "You're defined by your mistakes," but You say, "I will remember your sins no more" (Hebrews 8:12). I thank You for Your forgiveness and mercy. The world says, "It's all about you," but You say, "Love your neighbor as yourself" (Mark 12:31). Help me to love others as I love myself. The world says, "Fear is the key to survival," but You say, "Fear not, for I am with you" (Isaiah 41:10). I trust in Your presence and protection. The world says, "Happiness comes from possessions," but You say, "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven" (Matthew 5:3). Help me to find true happiness in You.”
