A Prayer About Risk

A prayer about Risk

When I’ve been playing it safe

Lord,

Sometimes it seems that my faith centers on warnings to avoid things: the “thou shalt nots.” But I long to do something positive for you—to take a faith adventure and learn to trust you more. I want to keep growing, and to do that, I need to leave behind my timidity and take a chance on you. Lord, give me the faith to risk everything for you.

Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the LORD will personally go ahead of you. He will be with you; he will neither fail you nor abandon you. Deuteronomy 31:8
