Dear Lord, As I stand at the edge of something new—whether exciting or unknown—I pause tonight to ask for Your guidance. I don’t want to take one step forward without You. Help me not to lean on what I see or what I think I understand. Instead, teach me to trust You with my whole heart. When the path looks uncertain or overwhelming, remind me that You are already ahead of me—lighting the way, holding my hand, clearing the path. Give me courage to move forward, even when fear tells me to turn back. Give me peace when I can’t predict the outcome. Help me rest in the truth that Your plans are always good, and that You walk with me through every valley and over every mountain. Tonight, I surrender the journey to You—every twist, every step, every unknown. You are my compass, my map, and my faithful Guide. Lead me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
