One of the readers in our community recently wrote to me and said something like:

I love the prayers you write. I need one that speaks just to the moment. Could you write one for that occasion?

And so today when the words to this prayer flowed from my heart, I thought I would share them with you.

A Prayer for the Moment

Jesus,

Today the day appears gigantic
And my heart is suffocating
With the weight of the world.
Right now I can’t think past the hour,
Much less the entire day.
This moment alone threatens to smother
And I need your love to fill me.
As life transcends from you,
May my every breath rely on the same-
Your holy power
To inhale for me,
To exhale over me,
And to breathe through me
To reveal the essence of your glory.

Amen

In his hand is the life of every living thing and the breath of all mankind.Job 12:10

Rachel

When the day seems too large and even the moment is overwhelming…

    my prayer for the moment is that I will stop worrying about loosing weight, and accept myself the size that I am. I want to hide more in the love of Jesus and not be so judgemental and harsh on myself. ‘love my neighbour as I love myself’. God will change my desires and turn me to him for everything instead of running towards food. love caz x

    Thank you! I’m printing this out! I suffer from anxiety and occasional panic attacks. I don’t even know what to pray in those moments. This will help tremendously! God bless you!
