This prayer is for those who feel scared or unsure. It invites forgiveness and renewal. It reminds us that God’s peace is the only true comfort for a tired heart.
Heavenly Father,
As night falls and silence wraps around us, I come to You with a heavy heart. My worries, sorrows, and doubts weigh me down. You, O Lord, are my safe haven and strength, seeing my deepest thoughts even when I’m speechless. Tonight, I give You all my anxious thoughts, painful memories, and restless feelings, trusting You to soothe my troubled heart.
Father, I pray for Your healing touch on my wounds. Where sadness lingers, pour in Your joy. Where fear grips me, let Your love conquer it. Where my heart is tired, give me new strength. You’ve promised to be near those with broken hearts and to save the crushed in spirit. I hold onto that promise now.
Forgive me for doubting Your plan and trying to carry burdens alone. Remind me that You work for my good, even when it’s hard to see. Teach me to trust You, to rest in Your arms, and to find solace in Your love.
As I close my eyes tonight, I ask for peace to calm the storms within me. Let Your peace, which is beyond all understanding, protect my heart and mind in Christ Jesus. Fill my dreams with Your presence and refresh my spirit for tomorrow.
I surrender all to You, Lord, and thank You for the healing You’re doing in me. In Jesus’ name, I pray.
Amen.
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”
— Matthew 11:28 (NIV)
