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
Write privately what you are carrying. No one else sees this.
Three · Scripture · King James Version
“Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.”
Psalm 139:23–24 · KJV
Four · Reflection
You do not need the right label to be heard. God searches and knows the heart, and He leads gently in the way everlasting.
Five · Pray this
Lord, search me and know my heart. You already understand what I cannot put into words. Lead me in the way everlasting, and meet me exactly where I am. In Jesus' name, amen.
Six · Now in your own words
Say to God what you wrote above, in your own words.
