Father, I know that my confidence can only be established in Your Word. Give me eyes to see and ears to hear what you are saying so that I will align my thoughts with Yours. I ask You to forgive me for when I have listened to the lies of shame, which lead me to a place of confusion. I choose to fix my eyes on You. I know that You are not the author of confusion, but of peace. I receive Your peace right now. I fully commit myself to Your will and way. I can trust in You!
