A Prayer For The Life You’re Afraid To Hope For Again

Updated

You don’t have to make your dreams smaller just because some of them haven’t happened yet. There are still parts of your life you haven’t met, and they deserve to be imagined with hope instead of fear.

God,

I’ve been disappointed enough times that expecting less has started to feel safer. There are things I used to pray for with excitement that I’m almost afraid to want anymore, because I don’t know if I can handle another almost.

Give me the courage to look forward to my future again

Jacqueline Whitney

But I don’t want disappointment to decide what I believe is possible for my life. Help me hope again. Remind me that what didn’t happen before does not determine what can still happen next, and that I have not seen everything you can do with my life yet.

Give me the courage to look forward to my future again. I don’t need to know what’s coming. I just want to believe there are still beautiful things ahead of me.

Amen.

Jacqueline Whitney is the author Held: A 50 Day Devotional For Parents and All That You Deserve.

The quiet was never empty.

It was where
God met you most.

Let Go, Trust God, Become Who You Were Meant To Be is not a step-by-step guide to fixing your life—it’s a gentle companion for the seasons when nothing makes sense. In these pages, Rebecca Simon offers soulful reflections for anyone sitting in the in-between: between heartbreak and healing, between longing and fulfillment, between who you were and who you’re becoming.
