A Prayer In a Time of Worry (Anxiety)

Worry.

It separates me from You, God.

I guard my worries,

telling myself and others how they are justified.

While worrying,

I do not notice

Your tender gifts:

A day of health.

The face of my friend.

The comfort of touch.

Give me one thing more;

Infuse me with Your Spirit

that I may attend to Your many gifts.

Forgive my fears.

Restore me to gratitude.
