Haggai 1:5-6
“Thus says the LORD of hosts: Consider how you have fared. Go up into the hills and bring wood and build the house, that I may take pleasure in it and that I may be glorified, says the LORD. You have sown much, and harvested little. You eat, but never have enough; you drink, but never are filled; you clothe yourselves, yet no one is warm. And he who earns wages does so to put them into a bag with holes.”
— Haggai 1:5-6

A prayer for Haggai 1:5-6
Father, I come with hands too full and a heart too tired to pretend I'm fine. I confess I have been operating from my own strength for so long I forgot how to rest in Yours. Forgive me for equating silence with Your absence. Today I return. I lay down the weight I was never meant to carry alone. Open what has been closed. Restore what I have lost. I trust Your timing — even the parts I do not understand yet. In Jesus' name, Amen.
