Prayer for teens

Father, You told Joshua to be strong and courageous, not because the place would be safe, but because You would be there. You said You would be with him wherever he goes. That means even in school. Even in the worst hallway. Even in the conversation I have been avoiding. Walk in with me today. Let me feel less alone in the corners where I usually shrink. I do not need to be stronger than everything around me. I just need to know You are next to me. Be with me in the real hallway, in the real moment, not just in my head. Amen.
