Prayer in Anxious Times


Here’s a prayer for anxious times from The Rev. David Loleng. It was posted in a collection of prayers on the PCUSA website.
Prayer: God, who holds us in our anxiety
God of grace and mercy,
be present with us as we face an unknown future
and as we walk paths untrodden.
In the ever-changing and uncertain world where we find ourselves,
help us to know and be assured that you are sovereign,
that you are all-knowing,
all-powerful and ever-present.
We know you are a good God
who holds us in our anxiety and distress
and who has a plan for our future.
Calm our hearts and minds and give us hope in you,
our only certain hope.
We pray in the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ. Amen.
