Let’s review the simple prayers we’ve explored. These prayers are like conversation starters with God, helping us draw closer to Him each day.

“Jesus, I surrender my will to Yours.” Surrender is about giving ourselves completely to God, trusting Him to keep us safe.

“Jesus, give me Your peace.” God’s peace is greater than our circumstances. It guards our hearts and minds even in difficult times.

“Jesus, I trust You.” Trusting God means we believe that He is caring for us and we are able to rest safely in Him.

“Jesus, I need You.” When we tell God our needs, He is faithful to help us.

“Jesus, thank You.” Gratitude keeps our hearts open and connected to God’s goodness.

“Jesus, I love You.” Affirming our love for God strengthens our relationship with Him and others.

“Jesus, forgive me.” Forgiveness brings healing and freedom by cleansing our hearts.

“Jesus, give me wisdom and guidance.” Seeking God’s direction helps us make sure our decisions and actions come from God.

This morning, pray through any of these or all of these, as you feel the need. Remember, your prayer time is about your connection with God. It’s not about getting through a list or checking off a box, but rather about meeting with the Lord.
