Loving God,

I honor you by saying, “I am enough.”

I honor this life by knowing today, I did enough.

I affirm your work in me and through me, Oh God.

Thank you for standing in the gap where I lack while calling out my gifts and giving me the courage to use them.

Trusting you, God, I release the day and make room for the promise of tomorrow.

Now to rest…grateful and at peace for this moment.

Amen.
