Lord,
Thank You for giving me another day of life.
As I rise, I place this day in Your hands.
Calm my thoughts, steady my heart,
and guide me through whatever awaits me.

Fill me with patience, kindness, and courage.
Help me face my work with peace and confidence,
and let fairness and understanding guide every decision around me.

Protect my home, my loved ones, and my dog today.
Let Your light go before me,
Your grace surround me,
and Your love give me strength in all I do.

I trust You with this day, Lord —
be my peace, my strength, and my guide.

Amen.
