*_In thee, O LORD, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness._*
Psalm 31:1
*Prayer :*
Teach me to remain calm when facing trouble. May I learn from the example of Jesus who never ran from a challenge and faced all sufferings in the confidence that comes from obedience and trust.
In my distress, may I earnestly seek You trusting Your protection and sure mercies on my soul. Keep me out of the enemies' trap and from the sin that would snare me. I affirm my dependence on You as I place myself into Your hands.
Help me let go of fear, worry and doubt. Grant me the grace to go through difficulties. Like David I have taken my refuge in You and I trust in Your unfailing promises.
In Jesus' name, I pray.
