Dear Heavenly Father,
As I come before you now, I seek rest for my weary soul. In the busyness of life, help me to find peace and calm in your presence. Let me lay down my burdens at your feet and trust in your perfect plan for my life.
Grant me the strength to let go of my worries and anxieties, and instead, find rest in your unfailing love. May your peace wash over me like a gentle wave, soothing my spirit and renewing my energy.
Thank you, Lord, for being a refuge in times of trouble and a source of comfort in moments of need. Help me to rest in the assurance of your goodness and faithfulness, knowing that you are always with me, guiding and protecting me.
