Prayer for Peace & Happiness

“Dear Heavenly Father,

The peace you give is everything my restless soul needs.

Lord, show me when I choose anxiety and fear over what you have to offer and help me to see the blessings in my life instead of focusing on what I don’t have.

Bring a song of gratitude to my heart that will break off depression and feelings of lack.

Today, you’re offering me the sun, a fresh start and an opportunity to re-new my mind. I thank you for each one.

Who needs to be blessed today?  Show me and give me the means to do something about it!

Who is doing worse than I am? Give me a heart to step out of my dark shadow to bring a spark of light to another.

Take me out of the pits of despair and lead me into the paths of those who could use a friend.

As I meet the needs of others, fill my heart with your joy and I know that will strengthen me for tomorrow. When I rest my head at night, I’ll know I’ve met my purpose of building others up and creating positive change in a world hungry to experience goodness without strings attached.

In Jesus’ name, bless me to be a blessing! From the overflow, I know peace and happiness will follow me all the days of my life.  Amen.”
