Let prayer be your first response, not your last resort.

I notice that during moments of difficulty or when faced with challenges, instead of praying, my first instinct is to worry. I start to plan how to deal with the situation and imagine different scenarios that could unfold. However, rather than letting anxiety take over, we should turn to God in prayer before anything else. We need to ask Him for wisdom to navigate what we're going through, trust in His control, and find peace in His guidance.

Always remember: Let prayer be your first response, not your last resort!
