A prayer for Dependence

When I want to depend more on God

O Lord,

May I daily live with a constant sense of your presence. May my life be a moment-by-moment conversation with you, even as I go about my work. Teach me to pray throughout the day, offering up thanks, praise, thoughts, and requests. Help me to pause regularly to consider how you have been with me the past hour, as that will remind me to ask for your guidance in the hour ahead. Hour by hour, day by day, I want to grow more dependent upon you, O God, because your very breath sustains me. You created me for a purpose, and I want to stay close enough to you to know it and fulfill it. In my dependence on you, let me experience the freedom of life as you meant it to be.

Blessed are those who trust in the LORD and have made the LORD their hope and confidence. They are like trees planted along a riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water. Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by long months of drought. Their leaves stay green, and they never stop producing fruit. Jeremiah 17:7-8
