Introduction
Life has a way of testing our limits—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. There are days when exhaustion, fear, or uncertainty leave us wondering how we’ll make it through. Yet, in these very moments, prayer becomes our lifeline.
A prayer for strength is more than asking God to carry our burdens; it’s a reminder that we are never alone. It connects us to the wisdom, courage, and peace found only in His presence.
