A Prayer When You Are Worried | Your Daily Prayer

Gracious Jesus, Sometimes I am so overwhelmed by my worry and my stress that I lose focus on your presence. My worry consumes me to the point of sleeplessness or heartache. You call me to rest in your presence and to find in you my heart's strength. Lord, I know that you are always with me in whatever I face. Help me to see your presence and bless my eyes to notice you in my comings and goings. Bless my ears to hear your word of hope and peace and salvation. And dear Lord, when I am tempted to worry, to let my mind get stuck on what is before me. Please give me the strength to set my mind on you, Jesus. I reach out to you, confident that in this moment I can give you all my stresses, all my worries, and all my anxieties. And in return, you give me your grace and your peace. Be my hope. Be my joy, my strength and my refuge. This I pray. In the name of Jesus Christ, my Lord. Amen.
