alivio
Español
A short prayer for when anxiety tightens your chest and your thoughts will not stop. Pray it slowly, quietly if you can, and pause at the end of each line to breathe.
Lord Jesus, my heart is restless and my thoughts find no rest. You invite the weary and burdened to come to you, and you promise them relief: here I am, with everything that weighs on me. Take my anxiety into your hands. Quiet what is stirring in me and teach me to breathe in your presence, one moment at a time. I do not ask that everything change at once; I ask that you not let me go. May your peace, greater than my fears, guard my heart and my mind today. Amen.
