Prayer

Jesus taught us to pray with confidence, knowing the Father hears us (Matthew 6:9-13).

Father, You are holy and good, and You delight in giving Your children what is best. I confess I've been careless with what I allow into my mind and heart. Some of what I watch doesn't honor You or build me up. Give me wisdom to discern what is truly worth my time and courage to walk away from what isn't. Help me crave what is pure more than what is thrilling. In Jesus' name, Amen.
