The Blessed Traveler

In the hush of early morning, 

as the sun begins to rise, 

I gather my thoughts, lifting them like petals, 

soft whispers carried on the breeze, 

and I seek Your presence, Lord. 

With the promise of adventure ahead, 

my heart dances, 

but beneath the joy, a humble plea rests, 

for safety, my refuge in the wild unknown, 

as I journey through mountains, oceans, and skies. 

As we embark on winding roads, 

where laughter and discovery await, 

I ask that Your hand guides us, 

cradles us in the embrace of Your love, 

protecting us from harm, 

from storms that brew fierce and uninvited. 

Let the wind shield our laughter, 

and the stars light our nights, 

remind us of Your grace in every moment, 

that even in the unfamiliar, 

we may find peace, 

wrapped in the garments of Your watchful eye. 

For every sunset painted with possibility, 

and every challenge that awaits with curiosity, 

I pray for courage, a heart steadfast, 

to trust in Your plan, 

to find solace in surrender, 

and to return home, 

rejuvenated, grateful, 

with memories woven into the fabric of our souls. 

So here, I give thanks 

for the journey we are about to embrace, 

and in this prayer, I find comfort, 

knowing You are with us, 

through every path, 

every adventure, 

until we are safely home again.
