God of all comfort, I am stepping in again. The alarm felt heavier than usual. My coffee went cold while I stared at the screen.
Steady my hands. Loosen my jaw. Remind me I don't have to prove anything today.
I know the urge to perform, to hustle for approval, to hide behind busyness. I put that down. Not perfectly. But I put it down.
Sit with the discomfort of being new. Let it teach You what You need to hear.
In Jesus' name we pray. Amen.
