A prayer for those flooded with too much information
Lord, fear has gripped our hearts, and we often feel paralyzed by what lies ahead. But you have not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and self-discipline. Help us to be courageous, to stand firm, and to face every challenge with confidence in Your presence. Remind us that You are with us always and that Your perfect love casts out fear. All this we ask through Christ our Lord. Amen.
May these and all our intercessions be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, our strength and our redeemer.
