Find Peace A Prayer for Being Overwhelmed

In our busy and demanding world, it is easy to feel overwhelmed. Take a moment and read the following prayer. In this moment, know that God is here.

Dear God,

Thank you for being the God who never sleeps.

Thank you for always being here for me, even when I’m not always here for you.

Thank you that you are Love and that you want the very best for me.

Thank you for your promises and that you never change.

I am feeling totally overwhelmed.

Please help me.

Help me to rest in the fact that you know what is best for me.

Forgive me for turning away from you and trying to control the outcome in situations in my life.

The Bible says that you are not the God of confusion but of peace.

Help me to rest in your love and to feel the peace which surpasses all understanding.

Help me to feel your love and comfort.

Help me to be still and know that you are God and that you will take care of me, just like any loving parent takes care of their children.

Your Word says to cast all of our anxiety on you because you care for us.

I turn all of my burdens and concerns over to you.

Please guide my every step and help me to be attentive to your loving direction.

Amen
