Prayer for times of worry and anxiety

The following is a favorite prayer for times of worry and anxiety. I am thankful for a book that expresses the weights of my heart and mind, when I myself can’t find the words to say them. Pulled straight from the Book of Common Prayer, and prayed by many faithful witness who have gone before us:

“Most loving Father, you will us to give thanks for all things, to dread nothing but the loss of you, and to cast all our care on the One who cares for us. Preserve us from faithless fears and worldly anxieties, and grant that no clouds of this mortal life may hide from us the light of that love which is immortal, and which you have manifested unto us in your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.”
