Despite how uncomfortable and painful it may feel, I truly believe anxiety can and should bring us closer to Christ. Especially, when we succumb all to Him. Sometimes that’s tough to do when our minds and our hearts are racing. So, I wrote this little prayer of surrender that I want to share with you.
I hope it brings you closer to Him. I hope it gives you peace in your heart. I hope you feel His presence and His love and know that He is always, always there.
Lord, my God, I give you all, even though it may be small, that I have. I give you my pounding heart and my racing thoughts. I give you my fears and my worries and my doubts. I give you my uncertainties and my lack of confidence. I surrender my life to you and trust that in You, all things are made new.
I trust that you take my shortcomings, my illnesses, my inadequacies and heal me from the hurt these cause, even if that freedom comes after death. I trust that I can do all things through You who strengthens me. I vow to walk side by side with you through this phase of anxiety and carry my cross as you carried yours – with a humble and holy heart.
And as I walk this journey, I pray for all of those who may be feeling the same way. Give them the strength and the courage to stand strong against the lies that run through their minds. And help them to know that you have knitted them together and have placed a special purpose on their lives.
Amen.
