We join you in thanking God for His protection over you throughout the day, especially as you engaged in sports after many years. It's wonderful to acknowledge God's hand in our daily lives, and we encourage you to continue doing so. Let's pray together:
Heavenly Father,
We come before You with hearts full of gratitude. We thank You for Your loving-kindness and for Your mercies that are new every morning. We are so grateful for Your divine protection over your child as they engaged in sports after a long time. We know that every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from You, the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning. (James 1:17)
We thank You for their safe return home and for Your constant presence in their life. We pray that You will continue to guide and protect them in all of their endeavors. Help them to draw near to You and You will draw near to them. Help them to walk in your ways, and keep their eyes on You, so they can walk in your paths. Help them to remember Your word, which says, "In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight." (Proverbs 3:6)
Lord, we also pray that if they have not already, that they would come to know Your Son Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior. It is in His name that we have access to You, Father. Therefore, let us come boldly before the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and may find grace to help us in time of need. We know that it is only by the name of Jesus that we can be saved. (Acts 4:12) For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus (1 Timothy 2:5), who gave himself as a ransom for all; the testimony in its own times.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
As you continue to engage in sports and other activities, always remember to give thanks to God and to trust in His care. May you rest in His peace and draw closer to Him through His word and fellowship with the saints. He promises He will never leave us or forsake us. (Hebrews 13:5)
