A Prayer for Peace and Courage

Dear God,

I come to you today asking for your help. Sometimes, I feel afraid, and that fear feels heavy on my heart. Please take away this spirit of fear and fill me with your peace. Help me to remember that I am never alone because you are always with me.

Give me the strength to face each day with courage. When I feel worried, remind me of your love and your power. Help me to trust you more than I trust my own fears.

Amen.
