Prayer text
Lord Jesus, my heart is restless and tired. Help me breathe calmly, remember that I am not alone, and entrust to You what I cannot control. Give me peace to live this day with faith, prudence, and trust. Amen.
When to pray this prayer
Pray when worry takes too much space, before sleeping, before a difficult conversation, or when you notice you are trying to control everything alone.
How to pray calmly
Find a possible place of silence, make the Sign of the Cross, read the prayer slowly, and pause on the phrases that speak most to your heart. There is no need to rush: a brief prayer made with attention is worth more than many words spoken without presence.
Small practical step
Write one line with the next concrete step of the day and entrust to God what does not depend on you right now.
