Exodus 14:14

The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still
A man in a checked shirt praying in a church, hands clasped together.

Father God, I am so quick to jump into arguments, defend my reputation, and try to force outcomes through my own effort. I wear myself out fighting battles You never asked me to engage in. Grant me the quiet confidence to hold my peace today. I surrender my desire for control and vindication into Your hands. Be my champion, fight on my behalf, and teach my spirit the divine strength found in standing still while You work. Amen.
