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
What makes you feel most alive, and where do you feel most useless?

Four · Reflection
You are God's workmanship, prepared for good works He already ordained. Purpose is usually discovered in faithful obedience, not in a sudden revelation.
Five · Pray this
Lord, I want my life to matter. Thank You that I am Your workmanship, made for good works You prepared. Commit my work to You and establish my steps. In Jesus' name, amen.
