About this prayer
Prayer for courage before a difficult conversation: remember Esther, trust God, and ask for words that are both honest and kind. Esther asked others to fast before she approached the king (Esther4:11,16;5:1–2, narrative paraphrase). Her situation was distinct from an everyday difficult conversation; this story points toward preparation and courage without promising the same outcome. Psalm56:3, KJV: “What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.” Scripture: King James Version (public domain). This prayer does not guarantee another person’s response or require confronting an unsafe person. Courage includes seeking wise support and choosing a safe time and setting.
