Johannesevangeliet 1:3

Need more of God's grace, favor, and blessing? Then pray these five simple prayers of humility, asking the Lord to favor you and help you. He will answer your prayer; He gives grace to the humble! And if you humble yourself before the Lord, He will lift you up.

People often say, “Give God your burdens.” Do you ever wonder: How do I do that? The brokenness of the world feels too heavy. And as much as you desire to shine the light of Jesus, you wonder what that looks like when you struggle to see the light yourself. This devotional looks at how we can be lights for Jesus even when our own world feels dark.
