He Will Sustain You

A prayer for fear & anxiety, from Psalm 55:22

Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you: the verse doesn't promise the cares vanish, it promises you get sustained underneath them. That's often the real need at this hour. A prayer for the handoff, and for being held up after it.

Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken. Psalm 55:22 (NIV)

The prayer

Father, I cast all my anxious cares on You. You will sustain me. You will never let me be shaken. I give You my burdens.

Make it yours: change any words that don’t fit, or stop at the one line that’s true today. Amen can wait until you mean it.
