Trading Worry for Prayer and Peace - A Nighttime Prayer

0:000:00
1x
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.  -- Philippians 4:6-7
Please Pray:
Father, thank you for sending your son, Jesus, to save me from myself. I am so thankful that He knows what it feels like to be human and to struggle with worry and fear. I am so grateful that He showed us how to pray and reminded us that we are never alone. Help me remember I can always come to you when the troubles of this world tempt me to worry. Help me, Lord, to make prayer a daily habit. In Jesus' name, I pray, Amen.

We all have a story to share. Mine happens to be a story of the grace and kindness of Jesus. I am a wife to a first responder, a mama to three incredible young men, a lover of words and their meanings, a storyteller, a truth-seeker, and a recovering worrier, to name a few things.
