Dear Lord, I thank you for the boldness that you have given me in Christ. Help me to use this boldness to command and lead others in a way that is appropriate and pleasing to you. May my words and actions always reflect your love and grace. Guide me in all that I do, and may I always seek to honor you in everything. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
