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
Who or what left you feeling unwanted? Name it without minimizing it.
Three · Scripture · King James Version
“When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up.”
Psalm 27:10 · KJV
“The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me?”
Psalm 118:6 · KJV
“What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?”
Romans 8:31 · KJV
Four · Reflection
Rejection tells you what someone decided; it does not tell you what you are worth. God takes up those who have been set aside.
Five · Pray this
Father, being turned away hurt me. Thank You that You take me up. Remind me who I am to You when other voices tell me I am not enough. In Jesus' name, amen.
Six · Now in your own words
Ask God to tell you the truth about who you are to Him.
Seven · Private journal
What rejection made me believe about myself, and what God says instead.
Eight · One practical step
Spend time today with someone who is glad you exist.
Before you go
You were not overlooked by God. You are His.
