The older I get, the faster time seems to pass. Often, I feel like I’m losing control of my life, afraid that I’m not doing enough or that I’m doing it wrong. Oh Lord, You comfort me with Your love. Losing control feels frightening because I rely on my own heart instead of Christ’s. But in You, I can never truly lose control, for You alone reign over all things.

Lately, I’ve noticed the signs of aging in my body, which has made me reflect on the power of time and the frailty of us weak humans. Oh Lord, You see every part of my heart, even those I cannot see or understand. Please take away all my fear and doubt, and fill me only with Your peace and unwavering trust in You. As long as I live, that is the only thing that can keep me content and bring me joy. Fix my heart on You alone, not on this chaotic and tempting fallen world, for this world is not my home.

Thank You for arranging so many meetings with different people and guiding me through each encounter. I see how You nudge me, leading me to grow and deepen my understanding of what it means to be Your disciple. I long for true fellowship and desire to work solely for Your glory.
