Say this prayer before bed and watch your life change for the best:

Part 1: God, show me how good it can get. Show me who you are. Show me your goodness. And when you do, God, do not let me be the one to ruin it. If I'm being honest, I know I have talked myself out of blessings before. God, do not let me overthink the good thing. Don't let me entertain people that I know I need to walk away from.

Part 2: Don't let fear convince me that what you gave me wasn't actually mine. Remind me that I don't have to earn what you freely give. Remind me that grace isn't a performance, and that I don't have to hustle for your love. Teach me how to rest in what you have already promised.

Part 3: Okay God, so if you need to stretch me, if you need to move me, if you need to shift me, if you need to correct me, do it. Take the worry, take the guilt, take the habit that I keep going back to. God, take anything that is keeping me small while I know you are trying to grow me.

Part 4: And if someone can't go with me into this next season, God, give me the strength to release it and not keep running back to them. Because God, when you show up, when you show me how good it can get, I want to actually be able to receive it. I wanna actually be prepared for it. I wanna be the version of myself who can hold on to what I've been praying for.
So God, as you guide my next steps, shape me, steady me, and position me. Do not just let me go my own way. In your name I pray. Amen.
