Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland
Isaiah 43:18–19
God, I’ve come from a season that challenged me more than I was ready for — a spring filled with loss, transition, and silent battles that no one else could see.
I’m tired, but I want to believe that something kinder is still possible, is still being written for me. As summer begins, help me to release what didn’t work out in the past. Help me to turn my heart towards what is waiting for me on the other side of letting go.
Remind me that something ending doesn’t disqualify me from the hopefulness, and the beauty of trying again, of trusting in what is meant for me.
Give me the courage to show up for what’s next with a soft strength, with open hands, and with the quiet confidence that you are already ahead of me in this new beginning.
