Our LORD, you are the one
who gives me strength
and protects me like a fortress
when I am in trouble.
2 TIMOTHY 1:12 (MSG)

PRAYER
God, my refuge and fortress, your presence surrounds me. When troubles are overwhelming, I regret that I often fall into old habits of worries and fear. Forgive me, Lord. You gifted me with life—body, mind, and spirit. I am convinced that you will also protect that life to the end. I can trust you forever. Amen. (Daily Texts, Ground Up Grace edition)
