My God, I am afraid.
I am surrounded by anxieties and do not know where to turn.
I am lost among the pitfalls and the challenges and it is more than I can bear.
My trust is broken and my peace is gone.
Spread the shelter of your peace over me and all that suffer.
Grant me peace of mind and restore my faith.
Help me to know the comfort of your presence,
that I do not endure these challenges alone.
Bestow your wisdom so that I can accept these challenges.
Soothe the pain of the hurt that I cannot avoid.
Show me the beauty, and goodness that is your presence,
Even when the darkness and injuries abound.
Hear my prayer for peace of mind
So that I can rest, and be restored
In the sanctuary of your eternal, boundless love.
