Prayer for Busy Women
My schedule is packed, my nerves are frayed, my head says go, my heart says stay. Loving God, can You give me a pace that I can keep up with? Grace comes with taking one step at a time. Peace comes with knowing that You are not pushing me to great heights. Instead, You are gently nudging me towards exactly where I need to be when I calmly do what needs to be done.
Fixer
The older I get, the more I realize how important it is to accept the fact that some people will never change. I have lived long enough to see that meddling in the affairs of others is a bad idea. I am not the fixer, but You are, O Lord. You raise the lowly and humble the mighty.
Prayer for my Loved Ones
Dear God, help me offer grace, not condemnation, to those I love. When I see him choosing the wrong path, may only gentle words leave my lips. When I see her choosing wrong companions, let me be there for her when consequences come. You know where their choice will lead, and I am comforted that You are always with them, helping them learn from mistakes and bad choices. Blessed are You, who gives guidance to my loved ones.
God Always With Me
Dear God, no matter how the winds blow, You are here. In every circumstance, You are here. You are with me in joy and sadness. In my peaceful state and when I am distraught. Thank You for Your ever-Presence.
Prayer for a Worried Mind
Dear God, Help me to lay down the worries that distract me from Your greatness.

Dear Friends, don’t try to take revenge. Leave it to God to show righteous anger.
Genesis 28:15
I designed time to be a protection for you. You couldn’t bear to see all your life at once. Though I am unlimited by time, it is in the present moment that I meet you. Refresh yourself in My company, breathing deep draughts of My Presence. The highest level of trust is to enjoy Me moment by moment. I am with you, watching over you wherever you go. Sarah Young
Psalm 139:14
You created my inmost being, knitting me together in my mother’s womb. I praise You because I am fearfully and wonderfully made. I know without a doubt, Your works are wonderful!
