Prayer For Worrying
Father,
You know that sometimes life and the circumstances we face are just hard. But you are our source of peace.
I pray for the one reading these words right now. I pray that whatever they are facing right now, that they would take a deep breath and inhale more of you and your peace while exhaling any of the worries that weigh them down. I pray that they would be anxious for nothing, but would come to you in prayer with all their needs, thanking you even now that you know how you're going to take care of every last detail.
I thank you that you care about the things that we care about, and that you are our source of peace in the midst of the storms.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
Dear Loving Lord,
I am feeling stress, I am worried.
Too many things occupy my mind.
Won't you help me?
Show me Lord, your order and your plans, are eternal.
Let me trust in your will alone.
Your word tells me where there is love, there is no fear.
Let me be filled with your love.
The perfect love that tells me I am not condemned, but I am saved.
I can do all things through you.
You Strengthen me.
In Jesus name, Amen
Dear Lord,
I thank you that I can come to You always for any reason. I'm grateful that when I pray to You, You answer me. Help me to come to You at the beginning of my fears and anxieties instead of waiting until I can't stand them anymore. The quicker I come to You the better. You want to free me from ALL my fears. Help me look to You for help more often so that I can be radiant with Your joy.
In Jesus' name, I pray, Amen.
Calm me, Lord, as you calmed the storm; still me, Lord, keep me from harm.
Let all the tumult within me cease, enfold me, Lord, in your peace.
Calm me, Lord, as you calmed the storm; still me, Lord, keep me from harm.
Let all the tumult within me cease, Lord, enfold me in your peace.
Father, my heart is heavy. I feel like I have to carry the burden alone. Words like overwhelmed, distraught, exhausted seem to describe where I am. I am not sure how to let you carry my heavy load, so please show me how. Take it from me. Let me rest and be refreshed so that my heart won't be so heavy in the morning.
In Jesus' name. Amen.
Blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him.
They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.
Dear Father,
In this space of total anxiety, I'm praying to you, the God of all.
Jesus, I need you so much.
The weight of this world consumes my heart and my spirit is confused.
I know you are not the god of confusion; you are the God of order, love and peace.
I pray you would restore order right now in me.
May my mind perceive that you make me sound.
May my soul receive that you give me strength.
May my heart believe that you show me love.
Thank you for the relief of an unburdened heart.
Amen.
God,
Grant me the serenity
To accept the things I cannot change;
Courage to change the things I can;
And wisdom to know the difference.
Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
As it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
If I surrender to His Will;
So that I may be reasonably happy in this life
And supremely happy with Him
Forever and ever in the next.
Amen.
