Prayer

Jesus invites you to come to Him with your shame and struggle: 'Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest' (Matthew 11:28).

Father, I confess that I've treated my body and my mind as if they belong to me, not to You. I've fed my eyes and my desires things You call impure. I'm exhausted by the shame cycle. I believe Jesus paid for this sin and that Your Spirit lives in me. Give me the courage to tell someone, to create real boundaries, and to actually believe that purity isn't punishment—it's freedom. Help me see my body as You see it: redeemed, valuable, and meant for You. In Jesus' name, Amen.
