A Prayer for Peace: When Your Mind is Racing
Revelations for this Moment
1 God, the one who in the beginning created the most peaceful world for His children, is able to restore peace in my mind today.
2 Praying to God has never made me feel more chaotic. He is the Source of peace - The more I pray and meet with the Source of peace, the more peace will fill my soul.
Prayer
My Maker, my Best Friend. I come to you, as the sovereign Ruler of both the largest of clouds, and the smallest of ants. How then, could I not trust you to calm my mind? My shoulders ache from the weight of all that is happening around me. My mind is in the midst of war. The good thoughts and the bad thoughts are constantly fighting within me. I need your rest O’ Holy One of Israel. Overwhelm me with your peace. I run to you, my Stillness. Unite me with the One who shaped me and gave me peace in my mother’s womb. Heal me from the chaos that seems to follow me. May you, and you alone, be enough for me. I hide in the hills of your security, I lay down in your hands, like a deer lays in a grassy field. Your security will silence the roaring winds around me, and keep me. You, my God, are my great comfort and my peace.
