Prayer

A Prayer to Cast Your Cares Upon the Lord - Your Daily Prayer - October 26

When anxiety takes over, you don’t have to spiral—you can surrender. This prayer walks you toward peace that holds, even when life doesn’t.

What Is Prayer?

Prayer isn’t a ritual that depends on closing our eyes and putting on holy faces. We don’t have to kneel or sit. We can pray while walking, driving, or working. God responds to a two word cry for help in the middle of a busy afternoon, just like He does to a focused prayer time after reading Scripture in the morning. Praying doesn’t have to be complicated. God delights in any simple words we offer Him.
