a prayer to move beyond fear

Dear Lord,

I come to you today feeling overwhelmed by fear and anxiety.

I confess that I have been trying to carry my burdens on my own.

I ask that you quiet my racing mind and soothe my anxious heart.

I surrender every "what if" and every fear to you, laying them at Your feet.

Please replace my fear with a peace that passes all understanding.

I choose to trust in your power rather than my own worries.

Remind me that you are with me, that you are my refuge and strength.

You have not given me a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and discipline.

Give me courage as I walk forward, trusting that I am never alone.

In Jesus’ name, I pray.

Amen.
