If you’ve ever cringed before revealing to someone a very deep, serious emotion, then you understand that stomach-churning sensation of danger just before divulging something profoundly personal. Sometimes, we might not feel we can trust the other person in whom we’re about to confide. Sometimes, we might be afraid we’ll be judged harshly and punished severely – without a care for our vulnerability or feelings.

But in prayer, no matter what we have to say, we are safe. This is so very important to remember – and to take to good heart.

The Father in Heaven, the loving Creator of each of us, is delighted that we come to Him in prayer. He wants us to be closer to Him.

We can tell God anything. We are safe.

Consider you prayers going forward as a way to open yourself up even more to God. Do not be afraid.

You are safe.

Peace,

Maureen
