Daily Prayer for Friday, October 30, 2026
Today's letter to God and King James verse of the day.
God,
It's Friday, and I'm already tired. Before I check my phone or the news, I'm giving You the first minute of this last workday of October. Meet me in the small things today: the traffic, the inbox, the long line. Let me finish this week kinder than I started it.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
22It is of the LORD's mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. 23They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.Lamentations 3:22-23 (KJV)
