As we begin this Wednesday morning, let us be reminded of the incredible power of prayer in our lives. In a world filled with busyness, challenges, and distractions, taking a few moments in the morning to connect with our Heavenly Father through prayer is a precious gift.
Wednesday may not be the beginning of the week, but it can be a spiritual reset button. It's an opportunity to refocus our hearts and minds on God's guidance and strength.
"Satisfy us in the morning with your steadfast love, that we may rejoice and be glad all our days." (Psalm 90:14)
