Prayer

Jesus told His followers, 'Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find' (Matthew 7:7), inviting us to bring our deepest longings to God.

Father, I'm caught between two loves—the dream You've placed in my heart and the family You've entrusted to my care. I confess I sometimes feel like I'm failing at both. Help me see that providing well is not small work—it's faithful work. And help me find the wisdom to pursue my gifts without neglecting those who depend on me. Show me what season I'm in, and make my next step clear. I commit this tension to You, trusting that You are not confused about what matters. In Jesus' name, Amen.
