Prayer for Peace of Mind
Published May 15, 2010 | From time to time I will post prayers for bedtime. They will be from a variety of religions (The Warm Milk Journal does not promote one particular religion). Tonight’s prayer is a christian one.
Prayer for Peace of Mind
O heart of Jesus, I place all my trust in You,
hoping for all things from Your goodness. You make a root flourish beneath the soil;
You can make fruitful the darkness in which I find myself today. I adore You in all Your purposes even
without knowing them; Your will be done, not mine.
May I be patient! It is so difficult to realize these trials, heartbreaking as they are, can be turned into
blessings. Lord, give me peace of mind, peace of heart, and peace of soul,
as I offer You my thoughts, my words, and my action, and yes, Lord my sufferings.
May they all be for Your greater glory, Amen.

Published May 5, 2010 | One of my favorite prayers of all time:
Lord, make me an instrument of your Peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
And where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
To be consoled as to console;
To be understood as to understand;
To be loved as to love;
For it is in giving that we receive;
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
And it is in dying that we are born to eternal light.
St. Francis of Assisi (1182-1226)

Published April 29, 2010 | I will be posting prayers on a regular basis from a variety of sources. The Warm Milk Journal does not promote one religion over the other. My spirituality is somewhat eclectic in that I find scripture and prayers from different faiths to be beautiful and supportive of my spiritual growth, peace of mind, and a restful night of sleep.
This one just happens to come from reformed Judaism (the religion of my childhood)
An evening prayer (from Gates Of The House: The New Union Home Prayer Book)
Lord, Your touch unseen brings sleep upon my eyes, You make
my lids grow heavy with the night. Grant that I may lie down
in peace, and rise up to life renewed. Let Your majesty and
beauty be in my thought at end of day, and at the moment of
my awakening!
Lord, Guardian of Israel, You neither slumber nor sleep.
Blessed are You by day, and blessed by night; blessed when
we lie down, blessed when we rise up. For in Your hands are
the souls of all living and the spirits of all flesh.
May angels’ wings caress me all through the night; let Your
good presence hover at my side. Lord, spread the shelter of
Your peace upon me, my dear ones, and all Your children.
Into Your hands I commend my body and my spirit, both when
I sleep and when I wake. In Your presence, I cast off fear and
lie down to restful sleep.
Amen
