A Prayer for When You Are Afraid

Fear can make the world feel unsteady. May this prayer return you to solid ground, and this verse remind you that perfect love casts out fear.

A prayer

Father, fear has taken hold of me and I feel small before what lies ahead. Remind me that You have not given me a spirit of fear, but of love and a sound mind. Walk with me, and let Your presence be braver than my worry. Amen.

For God didn’t give us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-control.
2 Timothy 1:7 · World English Bible
There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has punishment. He who fears is not made perfect in love.
1 John 4:18 · World English Bible
