As I look up to heaven, where my God looks down on me, I need a prayer that will bring me peace and harmony.
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your mind in Christ Jesus.
NIV Bible
I battle my thoughts, and the fear of the unknown,
Lord, I need every ounce of strength to let this scare go.
My strength is too difficult at the moment to come from me,
so I pray to God earnestly.
Thank you Jesus for all the times you have made my journey bearable;
sent an angel to watch over me; and eased my anxiety.
Help me Lord to be filled with cheer, and rid myself of all this fear.
Please put in my heart remembrance of calm, and words of hope.
In Jesus' name. Amen.
I’m thankful for my mother’s delicious baked cookies,
I’m thankful for long walks on the beach,
I’m thankful for the health of my children,
I’m thankful for all the other times, I made it through this far.
I need to keep my mind fond of pleasant memories,
knowing that you are near me, and your promises are true.
Surround me with your presence dear Friend,
my peace is restored, and my sorrows end.
My heart reminds me I’m never alone,
God’s presence ease my spirit,
and gives me rest when I need it.
I see your sunlight peeps through my window,
giving me the stronghold to embrace you,
and to let go of my circumstances.
No tasks are too difficult for you, Lord.
Give me your daily reminders that will carry me through each day.
In Jesus' name. Amen.
An anxious heart weighs a man down, but a kind word cheers him up.
