Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

A Prayer for Anxiety




O Christ Who Is My Rest

    This tension of the body,
    and racing of mind,
    and clamoring of heart
    afford me no peace in this moment.

Make use of my restlessness, O Lord. 
Amidst my doubt, anxiety, and uncertainty
make me aware for your presence, 
directing heart and thought and petition to you.

Lay your hand upon my brow, O Lord,
and bid me calm.

You have made me yours and in 
that knowledge may I know comfort. 

Give me the sweet, unspoken communion
of knowing that I am held in the strength 
of your love.

Amen
