Faith prayer for hope
Thank you, Father, for everything you’ve done for me. Father, you are aware of everything that is going on in my life right now. This is all too much for me, and I won’t be able to handle it on my own. Please forgive me for being preoccupied with my difficulties and allowing my faith to wane. I’m at your feet now, Lord, to give you all my problems.
I’m giving you all of my anxiety.
I hand over all of my burdens to you. Please take them away from me and offer me inner peace and serenity in their place. Give me the strength to get through each day, and comfort my heart. Help me to not get discouraged, but to develop in faith and trust in Your timing instead. Thank you for hearing my prayer and giving me hope, Amen.
