The Lord makes firm the steps of the one who delights in him

The Lord makes firm the steps of the one who delights in him; though he may stumble, he will not fall, for the Lord upholds him with his hand.

I bring all my fears, doubts and anxieties and lay them at your feet, O God, bring peace into my heart and do not let me stray from the path you have set before me. Uphold me into your righteous and merciful hand and do not let me fall, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen
