You are greatly beloved. I’ll say it again: you are greatly beloved. It’s true. You don’t have to have great dreams and visions like Daniel. You just have to be. Because God made you and sees you as precious. If we ask for it and seek for it, God will give us wisdom and understanding. Not because we deserve it. But because we need it and God wants us to have it. Because we are greatly beloved.
Loving God, grant me the wisdom and understanding to make sense of my life, so that I might discern and answer your call. Amen.
