Scripture References
Pray With Me
Father, as I prepare to travel, I place this journey in Your hands.
Watch over every road, flight, connection, vehicle, and decision along the way. Give alertness to drivers, wisdom to pilots and crews, and patience when delays or changes happen.
Protect me and the people traveling with me from accidents, confusion, and unnecessary risk. Help me make wise choices about rest, timing, weather, and safety.
Keep frustration from controlling my attitude when plans change. Remind me that people I encounter are carrying their own pressures too, and help me respond with kindness.
Protect the home and people I leave behind. Give peace to anyone who worries about my travel.
If I am traveling for work, help me represent You with integrity. If I am traveling for rest, help me actually receive it. If I am traveling because of a difficult circumstance, meet me with strength.
Bring me safely where I need to go and eventually safely home again.
I trust You through every mile and every transition.
In Jesus’ name, amen.
