  - Here is today's prayer.
• 0:51
  - Hello, and welcome to today's prayer.
• 0:56
  - Have you ever replayed a conversation
• 0:59
  - over and over
• 1:01
  - wondering what you should have said or what
• 1:04
  - someone really meant?
• 1:07
  - And the more we replay it, the more
• 1:09
  - anxious or frustrated we become.
• 1:12
  - Sometimes our minds become so crowded with assumptions
• 1:16
  - that it's difficult to hear God's perspective.
• 1:20
  - So what do we do
• 1:22
  - when we keep replaying conversations in our mind?
• 1:27
  - Well, the scriptures tells us to lean not
• 1:30
  - to our own understanding,
• 1:32
  - but in all our ways acknowledge God, and
• 1:35
  - he will direct our paths.
• 1:38
  - And
• 1:39
  - he also says to think on good things,
• 1:43
  - things that are lovely and pure.
• 1:45
  - In other words,
• 1:47
  - meditate on him,
• 1:49
  - and he'll decrease your stress level.
• 1:53
  - That being said,
• 1:54
  - pray with me.
• 1:57
  - Heavenly father,
• 1:59
  - you know the conversations
• 2:01
  - we keep replaying
• 2:03
  - and the thoughts we can't seem to let
• 2:05
  - go of.
• 2:07
  - Quiet the mental noise that steals our peace.
• 2:10
  - Help us release assumptions and seek your wisdom
• 2:14
  - instead.
• 2:15
  - Teach us to trust you with things we
• 2:18
  - cannot change and give us grace to let
• 2:20
  - go of what no longer serves us.
• 2:24
  - Fill our mind with truth
• 2:26
  - and our heart with peace, and we will
• 2:28
  - bless you in Jesus' name.
• 2:32
  - If this was encouraging to you,
• 2:35
  - share this prayer with someone today
• 2:37
  - who might need some
• 2:43
  - peace.
