Step 1 of 5

Thank God

Start with something good, big or small.

For example: “Thank You for waking me up today.” · “Thank You for my friend who texted me.” · “Thank You for being with me even when I forget.”

Step 2 of 5

Tell God honestly what you’re feeling. It’s okay to be messy.

For example: “I’m nervous about tomorrow.” · “I don’t know what to do about this.” · “I’m tired, and I need You.”

Step 3 of 5

Who needs prayer today? Name them, or just picture them.

For example: “Please be close to my grandma.” · “Help my friend who’s having a hard week.” · “Be with people who feel alone tonight.”

Step 4 of 5

Ask for what you need. God cares about the little things too.

For example: “Help me be patient.” · “Give me courage to be kind.” · “Help me rest tonight.”

Step 5 of 5

End however feels right to you.

For example: “Amen.” · “I trust You. Amen.” · “In Jesus’ name, Amen.”
