Dear God, thank You for this day and for bringing me to a new week. I’m asking for a peace that surpasses all understanding, the kind that changes everything. Your Word in Psalm 46:1-2 says, “God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea.” God, when my thoughts start racing this week, remind me that You are my refuge and my strength. Touch the parts of my life that feel broken or heavy, and give me everything I need to endure whatever this week brings. Your mercies are new every morning, and I trust You in the good moments and the hard ones. I put this week completely into Your hands. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

There is a river whose streams shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacle of the Most High. -Psalm 46:4
