Heavenly Father,
I come before You as Your humble servant, in need of hope. There are times when I feel helpless and weak. I pray for hope—for a better future, for a life filled with love and kindness. Some say the sky is darkest just before the light, and I pray this is true, for everything seems dim right now.
Lord, I need Your light in every way. Fill me with Your presence from head to toe, so I may bask in Your glory and find peace in Your divine plan. Help me walk in Your light and live by faith.
In Your name, I pray. Amen.

You know the unspoken desires of my heart, the things I barely dare to hope for. Today, I place them in Your hands, trusting You completely. I know that You can do far more than I could ever imagine (Ephesians 3:20).
Lord, You are my hope, and I trust in You. Amen.
