Heavenly Father,

You are the God of all truth, compassion, and mercy. I lift up Your child into Your hands today. You know his heart, his intentions, and the faith he’s carried through the years.

Lord, where understanding is limited, bring Your light. Where tradition may speak louder than grace, speak truth gently into his soul. Remind him that Your salvation is a gift, not a gate. That You are the Shepherd who seeks every lost sheep, and that Your love is wide enough to embrace all who call upon Your name.

May his heart be softened, not to abandon what he believes, but to expand it—to see Your mercy beyond the walls of denomination. Surround him with clarity, wisdom, and peace. And may those who hear his words come to know not fear, but the boundless hope found in You.

Let Your will be done in his life, Lord. And let all he teaches point not to rules, but to the Redeemer.

In the name of Jesus Christ, our Savior and our peace—Amen.
