Father,
You are my Strength and my Salvation.
During this time of trouble and chaos, I depend on You. I find stability in my faith. My current situation may be uncertain, but Your love is as certain as the dawn. When doubt overwhelms me, I meditate on Your Word. No matter how unstable my world seems to be, You are my sure Foundation. Thank You, Lord, for Your promise to walk beside me throughout my journey, lifting me up when I'm weak and keeping my feet steady on the path. Amen.
(From "Everyday Prayers for Everyday Cares")

1 O God, you are my God, earnestly I seek you;
my soul thirsts for you, my body longs for you,
in a dry and weary land where there is no water.
2 I have seen you in the sanctuary
and beheld your power and your glory.
3 Because your love is better than life,
my lips will glorify you.
4 I will praise you as long as I live,
and in your name I will lift up my hands.
5 My soul will be satisfied as with the richest of foods;
with singing lips my mouth will praise you.
Psalm 63 New International Version
