For my prideful and judgmental thoughts towards my husband. For my days of despair and self-pity. For my unforgiving heart. (After each statement, respond: I adore You, Jesus.) The air I breathe. The friends and family that love me. The food on my table. Having truth in my life. The eyes that see Your majestic creations. The love that I have in my heart for others. My life, with all its trials and pain. Knowing peace and joy through You. Your merciful heart. For all the prayers You answered for me and all those You left unanswered.

Grant me the strength to walk more closely with You each day. I surrender all to You, trusting in Your perfect will”
