Godā¦
You woke me up this morning.
So before I do anything elseā
I pause,
Breathe,
And say thank You.
Not just for lifeā¦
But for survival.
Because Iāve walked through fire,
And still came out whole.
Iāve been the storm,
The silence,
The testimony wrapped in scars.
And stillā¦
You saw me.
Loved me.
Carried me.
So today,
I donāt ask for perfection.
I ask for direction.
Order my steps,
Calm my thoughts,
Keep me walking in the lightā
Even when the shadows whisper my name.
Iām not who I used to be.
Thatās grace.
Iām not where I used to be.
Thatās favor.
And even on my worst days,
You remind me:
āDaughter, youāre still chosen.ā
So Lordā¦
Use me.
Let this voice
This pain
This journeyā
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:
Itās 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 heavyā
Lift my eyes.
Hold my hand.
Whisper to my soul:
āKeep going, Paizley. Iāve got you.ā
I surrender my future.
One step,
One word,
One prayer at a time.
In Jesusā name, Amen.
