Welcome to today's Guided Prayer, where we invite you to find a quiet space to still your mind and body.
Guided Prayers are a daily 5–10 minute, intentionally created moment to slow down and meet with God—through scripture, reflection, and honest prayer.
It’s not a program you attend.
It’s a pathway you practice.
A guided space where people can stop, breathe, and connect with Jesus—every single day.
Today, as we pause our daily schedule and turn our attention and focus to the Lord, take a few deep breaths and imagine you are pressing a bright red pause button. Relax your shoulders, unlock your jaw, take another deep breath. Do you remember the story in Mark IV, where Jesus calms a raging literal storm? Even the winds and waves respond to the voice of Jesus. Creation listens to him, and so can we. His authority brings peace. In the story, everyone on the boat is afraid for their very lives, hysterical, panicked. But Jesus stands and shouts into the darkness and sideways rain, quiet, be still. And the storm, without hesitation, calms to still water and bright skies. In a moment, because Jesus spoke, and those with him say to each other, Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him. This is our Savior, our Lord, our friend, our redeemer, our deliverer. Take fifteen seconds to praise Jesus for his authority, the one whose voice calms storms. Now, tell Jesus about the storms in your life. What situation feels dark? What area feels pelted on all sides? What relationship feels rocky? What outcome feels unstable? Talk to the storm ender. Talk to the storm tamer. Talk to the one who can see through the dark clouds, who is unaffected by the raging winds, who, in a moment, calls the rain to stop from falling. Ask him to speak peace. Be still over your situation, your mind, your emotions. Amen.
