One thing I ask, and this I seek: to dwell in Your presence, to behold Your beauty, and to seek You all my days. Even when I face trials, my heart will not fear, for I know You are with me. Teach me Your ways, O Lord, and lead me on a path of trust. I wait on You, Lord, with hope and courage, resting in the assurance that You will never forsake me. Amen.
