Guided Prayer
One · Pause
Be still for a moment. Breathe in slowly, and out slowly — three times. There is no hurry here, and no one is watching.
Be still, and know that I am God.
Psalm 46:10 · KJV
Two · Check in
How long have you been running without rest?
Three · Scripture · King James Version
“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
Matthew 11:28–30 · KJV
“He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.”
Isaiah 40:29 · KJV
“He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.”
Psalm 23:2–3 · KJV
Four · Reflection
God gives power to the faint and leads the weary into green pastures. Rest is not laziness; it is how He restores souls.
Five · Pray this
Lord, I am empty. Give power to the faint. Lead me beside still waters and restore my soul. Show me what to lay down so I can be renewed. In Jesus' name, amen.

Seven · Private journal

Eight · One practical step
Protect one real block of rest in the next two days.
Before you go
His yoke is easy. You were not meant to run on empty.
