A Prayer for Those Who Fear Getting Older | Your Daily Prayer

Aging can stir up unexpected fears—about purpose, appearance, health, or even being forgotten.

Aging can stir up unexpected fears—about purpose, appearance, health, or even being forgotten. But God sees every season of your life as meaningful and sacred. Today’s prayer is rooted in Isaiah 46:4 — “Even to your old age and gray hairs I am he… I will sustain you and rescue you.” This is a prayer for reassurance, for confidence, and for peace. God’s love doesn’t fade—and neither does His plan for you.
