🎙️ “One Prayer at a Time” Spoken by Paizley Carwell
God… You woke me up this morning. So before I do anything else— I pause, Breathe, And say thank You. Not just for life… But for survival. Because I’ve walked through fire, And still came out whole. I’ve been the storm, The silence, The testimony wrapped in scars. And still… You saw me. Loved me. Carried me. So today, I don’t ask for perfection. I ask for direction. Order my steps, Calm my thoughts, Keep me walking in the light— Even when the shadows whisper my name. I’m not who I used to be. That’s grace. I’m not where I used to be. That’s favor. And even on my worst days, You remind me: “Daughter, you’re still chosen.” So Lord… Use me. Let this voice This pain This journey— Be more than just survival. Let it be revival For the ones still searching. I pray for the sick, For the hurting, For the caged and the quiet. May my story unlock their chains And remind them: It’s not over. Shape me into everything You dreamed When You formed me in the dark. Make me bold. Make me gentle. Make me a mirror of Your mercy. And when I feel weak, When the weight gets heavy— Lift my eyes. Hold my hand. Whisper to my soul: “Keep going, Paizley. I’ve got you.” I surrender my future. One step, One word, One prayer at a time. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
