A Prayer for Bringing Our Small Limitations to Jesus | Your Daily Prayer

Sometimes we feel like what we have to offer isn’t enough—our time, our strength, our faith.

Updated Apr 17, 2025

Sometimes we feel like what we have to offer isn’t enough—our time, our strength, our faith. But Jesus never asks us to be limitless. He invites us to bring our small, broken, limited selves and trust that He will multiply what we offer. Inspired by 2 Corinthians 12:9 — “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness” — this prayer is a reminder that God is not asking for perfection, just surrender. Your little is more than enough in His hands.
