Lord, I come to You feeling tired, stretched, and pulled in so many directions. You see everything I am carrying right now — the responsibility, the people I love who need me, and the weight of trying to do it all well.
Your Word says that those who trust in You will find their strength renewed, so today I choose to trust You.
Renew my strength, Lord.
Lift me up on wings like eagles — above the stress, above the pressure, above the fear. Help me to keep going without burning out, to keep serving without losing heart, and to keep loving without running empty.
Guard my heart, Lord. Protect me from the words and attitudes of people who mean harm. Do not let negativity, criticism, or unkindness take root in me. Give me wisdom to discern what is true, strength to let go of what is not, and grace to respond with peace instead of hurt.
Remind me that I do not have to carry this alone. You are with me in every moment, every long day, and every quiet space.
I trust You to sustain me this week.
In Jesus' name, amen.
