Heavenly Father,
When life unfolds differently than we had hoped, draw our hearts close to You. In moments of disappointment, keep us from bitterness, and in seasons of waiting, keep us from despair.
Help us to trust that even when we cannot see Your purpose, You are still at work. Give us grace to release what might have been and courage to embrace what You are doing today.
Remind us that our hope is not found in plans that succeed, but in the God who is always faithful. Teach us to rest in Your wisdom, Your timing, and Your unfailing love.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
