Prayers for anxiety
Prayer for Peace in a Troubled Heart
When anxiety grips the soul, the Church turns to Christ who calmed the stormy sea and brings stillness to restless minds.

Lord Jesus Christ, You are my peace. Quiet the storm within me and drive far from me every anxious imagination.
As You calmed the waters for Your disciples, calm now the turbulence of my heart. Teach me to breathe the prayer “Lord, have mercy” until my fears bow to Your love.
Guard my mind, my body, and all whom I love. For You are the peace that surpasses understanding, and to You do I give glory, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen.
