Today's Prayer: For New Beginnings
Jesus, this place still feels so strange to me,
I miss the way things used to be.
Help me trust You brought me here,
Even when the path's not clear.
Show me where I fit in this new space,
Let me find Your love and grace.
Give my family roots that grow deep,
And friendships that we'll always keep.
Make this house become our home,
Where we never feel alone.
Amen.

Walk to your front door and touch it gently.
This is where God has placed you for now.
Trust that He has good plans for you here.
May Saints Andrew Kim and Paul Chong's courage remind you today—
Your faith travels with you wherever you go.
God makes all ground holy when you trust Him there.
Holding you in prayer,
