Prayer
Jesus taught us to come boldly before the throne of grace (Hebrews 4:16).
Father, You are faithful when I am faithless, constant when I am wavering. I confess that my track record is spotty, but Yours never fails. Help me trust Your faithfulness more than my feelings. Make me a person whose word can be trusted because I'm learning from the One whose word never fails. In Jesus' name, Amen.
