This prayer for when you feel overwhelmed is just a starting point. Remember, God is in control – trust him. Building trust requires time in his presence.
The worries of the world make your mind race. It’s hard to maintain a healthy perspective. Adopt a heavenly viewpoint and watch worry fade away.
You may not have all the solutions, but God helps you to cope – and to conquer.
The Lord is my light and my salvation;
whom shall I fear?
The Lord is the stronghold of my life;
of whom shall I be afraid?Wait for the Lord;
be strong, and let your heart take courage;
yea, wait for the Lord!Psalm 27:1,13

PRAYER FOR WHEN YOU FEEL OVERWHELMED (regular text)
Oh holy Father,
I seek you as I feel completely overwhelmed. I do not have the time or energy to sustain myself. Everything tells me there is too much to do.
Won’t you help me, oh Lord?
Show me your hand in control of all things. Let me rest in you. May I trust that you give me eternal blessings always. You alone are sovereign. You alone are the Lord.
So I stop at this moment and look for you, to feel the soft breeze of your merciful love carrying my worries away. You transform me. You change my heart.
I rise up strong again, in CHRIST. I face the world, my path straight and firm, with faith in your Son Jesus.
In his great name I pray,
Amen.
Lovely prayer for times in need
