Father, my soul feels tired, my mind is racing, my body is weary and I long for true rest.
You promised that your yoke is easy and your burden is light, yet I often try to carry
things on my own.
Help me release what is not mine to hold.
Teach me to embrace the peace you freely give.
Quiet the noise of my thoughts and fill my heart with stillness.
Let your presence surround me like a warm embrace, reminding me that I am safe with you.
I lay down my stress, my fears, and the endless list of things to do.
Instead, I choose to focus on your goodness.
Renew my energy, refresh my spirit, and let me rest in the truth that I am loved and cared for.
Thank you, Lord, for always being my place of refuge.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
