๐ฏ๏ธ๐ LAY IT DOWN (Week 2 – Going Deeper in Prayer)
Welcome back to Week 2 of Going Deeper in Prayer! ๐
๐ This week, we are moving into one of the most challenging parts of the Lordโs Prayer: โYour kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.โ Matthew 6:10
It is easy to pray โYour will be doneโ when Godโs will looks a lot like ours. But what happens when we have prayed for the healing, the relationship, the child, the open door, or the answer we desperately wantโฆand Godโs plan looks different from the one we had hoped for?
๐๐ฝ Join me for Week 2’s video, Iโm sharing personally about what this has looked like in my own life and what I am still learning about trusting God when the story does not unfold the way I imagined. So grab your Bible and your journal, light your candle, and letโs go deeper together!

Sometimes the hardest thing we lay down
is not the problem itself…
It’s the ending we already wrote in our minds.
This week, we are going to look more closely at what it means to seek Godโs kingdom, surrender our own plans, and trust Him with the outcome.
๐ฏ๏ธ Week 2 – Challenge ๐ถ
Keep your candle going and add to it โ soft music every day in your home. Choose worship, classical or another form of peaceful music that helps you focus on the Lord.
My candle and soft music literally change the atmosphere of my home. While the rest of my home may be messy, my candle keeps on burning and my soft music keeps on playing. Morning, noon and night they serve me. My candle serves me with a flickering warm light, a pleasant scent, and a reminder to turn to God as my source of strength and help. My music serves me with a soothing sound. They donโt make messes, they donโt need managed, they just simply bless me and my family. I hope it blesses you too. ๐ฏ๏ธ ๐ถ
