Prayer for a New Week

The Prayer

Lord Jesus, As I enter this new week, I place all my hopes, worries, and plans into Your Sacred Heart. Strengthen me where I am weak, guide me where I am uncertain, and fill my days with the light of Your presence. Grant me the grace to live with patience, charity, and courage. Help me to seek Your will in every conversation, every challenge, and every opportunity. Bless my work, my home, my relationships, and my intentions. Keep me close to You, O Lord, and lead me along the path of holiness. May this new week be a time of renewed trust, deeper faith, and quiet moments of grace. Jesus, I choose You again today—walk with me and make my steps steady and peaceful. Amen.
