A prayer to pray now
Father, in Exodus 16, You gave Your people bread from heaven every morning. Just enough for that day, not enough for the week. That is how You are with me. Give me today's food, today's strength, today's courage, today's calm. I want to store it all up so I do not need You tomorrow, but You give fresh grace every morning. Help me take what You give me today and trust You for tomorrow. I will come back to You again in the morning. Amen.
