I hope you will find solace and comfort here. If you have a prayer or words of hope and encouragement, please send it to me and I will post it.
Lord, help me to remember that nothing is going to happen to me today that You and I together can't handle!
You, who said, "Come unto me ye who are weary and heavy-laden and I will give you rest" I come to You now. For I am weary indeed. Mentally and physically I am bone-tired. I am all wound up, locked up tight with tension.
I am too tired to eat! I am too tired to think! Too tired even to sleep! I feel close to the point of exhaustion.
Lord, let Your healing love flow through me. I can feel it easing my tensions. Thank You! I can feel my body relaxing. Thank You! I can feel my mind begin to go calm and quiet and composed.Thank You for unwinding me, Lord, for unlocking me.
I am no longer tight and frozen with tiredness, but flowing freely, softly, gently.
<Dear Heavenly Father, As I lie here alone, trembling in fear of my own thoughts, please reach down with they love and calm my pounding heart.
Take these crippling ideas from my mind and let your generous understanding flow through my body instead of the pressure of anxiety. Take these burdens from me that I find impossible to carry.
In their place, give me the courage to face another day, not alone, but with the comfort that despite my fears, I have You in my heart, mind, soul and my home.
Help me to believe that the places I fear to tread with strangers are the same places where you, also, dwell within.
Wherever I travel, let me look outward for the good in people, rather than inside to the terror I feel.
There are those who do not understand my problem therefore, I pray they receive thy knowledge. If their minds remain closed to me, give me purity of heart to forgive them their ignorance.
Most of all, Father, when I falter in my own weakness, I need you more rather than when I am strong and in control.
And if it is Your will, I shall rise above these fears; permit me to be rid of them, but never allow me to forget them; for all the suffering would be in vain if I did not remember that it was your hand that pulled me out of the deep waters.
Let my own hand reach forth to another in need; to create a circle of strength and love instead of a cycle of fear.
I pray in the Name of Jesus, Amen
GOOD NIGHT, O LORD
Before I go to sleep, O Lord
I want to say this prayer,
That You will always keep me in
Your kind and loving care.
That You will let my body rest
And let my mind relax
And fill my dreams with holy thoughts
Instead of wordly facts.
I ask that You forgive me for
My failures of today,
And give me all the grace I need
To live a better way.
Watch over me tonight, O Lord
And in my heart instill,
The fervor and the constancy
To do Your holy will.
I want to follow You and grow
More worthy in Your sight,
O Lord, please listen to my prayer,
And hear me say good-night.
