Loving God,
When I am afraid, enfold me in your care.
Remind me that you are with me, always.
Fill me with peace.
Remind me of the resources within and around me to confront these challenges.
Guide me to see options and possibilities, and another future.
Enfold me in your care in moments when I am full of fear.
Help me to breathe deeply, taking in your strength, your love, your hope.
Calm me and empower me to think clearly and well.
Show me that I can face what lies ahead.
Remind me that you are with me, always.
Amen.
