Heavenly Father, I confess my weakness and inability to handle life on my own, especially the trials I face. Thank you for calling me to a mission beyond my power, so I can learn to rely upon yours. Fill me with your Spirit to live like Jesus, trust you in difficult times, and rejoice as my faith grows. Carry my burdens, fight my battles, and work for my deliverance. Nothing is impossible for you, and I rest in our power today. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
