Transcript

[SPEAKER_00]: take a deep breath. [SPEAKER_00]: Let it out slowly. [SPEAKER_00]: As you settle in, let the noise around you grow quiet. [SPEAKER_00]: Right now, the God who created you, formed you, and calls you his beloved daughter is drawing near. [SPEAKER_00]: He delights in you, he sees you, and he longs to speak peace, identity, and joy over your heart. [SPEAKER_00]: Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she laughs at the time to come, Proverbs 31-25.

[SPEAKER_00]: You are precious in my eyes, honored, and I love you. [SPEAKER_00]: Isaiah 43-4 Father, I come to you now, grateful that you know me fully and love me completely. [SPEAKER_00]: Your word says you formed me in the secret place. [SPEAKER_00]: breathed life into me and deemed me your master piece through Christ Jesus to do good works for your glory. [SPEAKER_00]: Take a moment and in your own words, tell God what you need from him today.

[SPEAKER_00]: Perhaps it's rest, reassurance, peace, direction, or simply a reminder that you are deeply loved. [SPEAKER_00]: Lord, thank you, that I can turn to you to know my worth. [SPEAKER_00]: Forgive me when I allow the world to influence my productivity, appearance, how much I carry, and the roles I fill. [SPEAKER_00]: Help me, Father, to fix my eyes on you and remember that you call me daughter. [SPEAKER_00]: I am chosen. [SPEAKER_00]: favored and deeply loved.

[SPEAKER_00]: Remind me God that I am not the sum of my insecurities, mistakes, or unmet standards. [SPEAKER_00]: I am who you say I am. [SPEAKER_00]: I am beloved and held by you. [SPEAKER_00]: Your truth in one Peter 3 4 says, [SPEAKER_00]: the beauty that comes from your spirit within me. [SPEAKER_00]: Make that beauty shine brighter than any fear or doubt. [SPEAKER_00]: Right now, bring God any insecurities or lies you've carried about yourself.

[SPEAKER_00]: Release them one by one, let him speak truth over those places. [SPEAKER_00]: Father, where my heart has felt restless or overwhelmed, breathe your peace over me. [SPEAKER_00]: Your word says, you rejoice over me with singing. [SPEAKER_00]: Let that truth quiet every anxious thought, replace chaos with calm, replace strain with strength. [SPEAKER_00]: Replace overwhelm with the confidence that comes from abiding in your love.

[SPEAKER_00]: Think of one area of your life where you need God's peace, home, relationships, motherhood, friendships, work, or your own thought life. [SPEAKER_00]: Invite him into that space now. [SPEAKER_00]: Lord, thank you for the relationships you've placed in my life, help me love with grace, wisdom and kindness. [SPEAKER_00]: But also, give me courage to establish healthy boundaries where needed.

[SPEAKER_00]: Proverbs 31-26 says, she opens her mouth with wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue. [SPEAKER_00]: shape my heart to reflect your character in every interaction. [SPEAKER_00]: Jesus, help me find joy. [SPEAKER_00]: Not in perfection, success, or approval, but in being a daughter of the most high God. [SPEAKER_00]: Let joy rise out where insecurity lives. [SPEAKER_00]: Let confidence grow where doubt takes root.

[SPEAKER_00]: Let freedom come where fear holds me back. [SPEAKER_00]: Make me a woman who stands clothed in strength and dignity. [SPEAKER_00]: Confident, not in herself, but in her god. [SPEAKER_00]: Take a deep breath. [SPEAKER_00]: Exhale slowly. [SPEAKER_00]: Rest for a moment in God's delight over you. [SPEAKER_00]: Father. [SPEAKER_00]: Thank you for your nearness, your voice, and your love.

[SPEAKER_00]: Help me walk today in the truth of who I am, your daughter, your workmanship, chosen, loved, equipped, and empowered by your spirit. [SPEAKER_00]: In Jesus' name, Amen.
