Life moves fast, and it’s easy to lose sight of peace, purpose, and God’s presence. No matter where you are in your spiritual journey, these short prayers can help you reconnect with God and refocus your heart. 

A Prayer for Rest

Dear Father, show me how to delight in the rest You offer. Help me to slow down and remind me that this is Your world and it’s a better place because I am in it. Help me stop and recharge, even as the world continues spinning. I am forever grateful for the life You’ve given me. Amen. 

A Prayer for Praying

Help me, O Lord, to enter silence without hesitation. Help me unplug and slow down from busy activities that shut You out. Teach me to wait and listen to Your still small voice. May I gain wisdom on how to better live the life You’ve given me. I wait in silence and lean into You to listen. Amen. 

A Prayer for Reflection

Dear Lord, help me to stop and be present, not letting the future or urgent matters block my need to reflect. You work in the unseen and ordinary rhythms. May I pause and think in the space I am in, seeing and sensing You, and emulating Your light and love in all I do. Amen. 

A Prayer for Love

God, as the definition of love, help me to grow in knowing Your character each day. Open my eyes to Your example of love and renew my heart to focus on loving You and others. Thank You for fully knowing and loving me as Your child. Amen. 

A Prayer for Faith

Dear Lord, help me grasp that even in darkness, I can trust Your firm grip to keep me steady on Your path. Illuminate my heart to trust during turbulent times and waves of doubt. Help me use the gift of faith to enlarge my heart and influence the world for good. Amen.
