Some mornings feel heavy. The inbox is loud, the world is louder, and your heart is trying to remember what’s true. If you need a simple way to come back to God before the day runs away, start here. These short lines are quiet prayers you can whisper while the coffee drips, in the car, or in the hallway between meetings.
Read them slowly. Pick two or three that fit today and let them settle in your chest. Say them again when worry spikes, when gratitude bubbles up, or when you need courage. No pressure, no perfect script—just honest words that lift your eyes to the One who holds you.
