Gracious God,
I thank you for your blessing and presence in my life.
The gift of faith that you have given me
is precious and fragile.
So much in this world threatens
its growth and its potential to bear fruit.
Guard me and strengthen me
in your grace and love
so that I might withstand the challenges and threats to my spirit.
Give me the wisdom
to tend my soul each day
in prayer and devotion to you.
Embolden my response
so that I live my life with openness and trust.
Send me out with renewed zeal to care for others.
Through Christ, amen.
