A new week signals a fresh start, an opportunity to restart our intentions anew and recalibrate our goals. Sometimes, in the chaotic rhythms of life, spiritual needs get further back in the queue, but this new week gives me the opportunity to connect with my faith again and look toward God’s guidance.
There have been those weeks when I felt lost and did not know which direction to take. During such a time, prayer became my anchor. It comforted me, reminding me that wherever I am on this life journey, I am never alone. I have learned to open my heart to God, sharing all my fears, hopes, and dreams. Each prayer will be a talking affair, a time to invite His presence into my life. This week, I want it to be deeper inside me, cultivating that connection, letting His love fill the spaces of my heart that are usually empty.
