Lord, help me remember the words of Psalm 91—that You cover me with Your feathers, and I find my safe place under Your wings.
Let Your presence be a source of peace that calms any anxiety, and let Your love be the comfort that drives out fear. Thank You for reminding me, even through angels, that I’m never beyond Your care.
“He will cover you with His feathers, and under His wings you will find refuge; His faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.” —Psalm 91:4
Thank You, Lord, for Your faithfulness. I surrender this day to You, knowing that Your plans are good and Your hand is upon me. As I step out into the world, let my heart be still, and my spirit finds rest, knowing that You are my God and I am safe in Your care.
