Prayers for Peace of Mind: Scripture and Encouragement for Days of Anxiety, Worry, and Stress | Devotional for Christian Women

by Holley Gerth

We all have anxious and stressful thoughts. Maybe yours happen when you watch the news, worry about a loved one, get ready for a big meeting, or stare at the ceiling in the night worrying about the future. Your heart pounds, your mind races, your sleep suffers. You may even wonder if your faith is weak or something is wrong with you. But neither is true.

Anxiety and stress are an inevitable part of being human, but they don't have to control your life. You really can live with more contentment and less worry, more inner peace and less fear, more joy and less stress.

From bestselling author Holley Gerth comes this heart-calming, faith-building collection of more than 100 prayers for those times you feel burdened by worry, stress, and anxiety. Whether you want to start or end your day with prayer or need to head right to the prayer that best fits your current concerns, this collection of Scripture and encouragement will help you release your anxiety to God and accept his peace in exchange.
