Prayer & Reflection

Lord we know we struggle with lying. We know it’s something that hurts us and others.
Please help guide us into your truth so we can be the best “us” we can be, following your infallible wisdom.
Let us speak truth over ourselves, over what we do and who we are.
And I pray we feel your presence in those daily moments where the lies want to overtake us. That we feel your love reaffirming your truth.

AMEN
