A Prayer for Financial Stress
Lord, I’m overwhelmed. The bills keep coming and the math doesn’t work. I’m doing my best, but my best doesn’t feel like enough right now.
Please give me peace in the middle of this stress. Help me think clearly about my next steps. Open doors I can’t see right now. And when I’m tempted to panic, remind me that You’ve provided before and You’ll provide again.
I’m not asking for a miracle — I’m asking for the strength to keep going and the wisdom to make good decisions.
Amen.
A Prayer for When You’re Behind on Bills
God, I’m embarrassed and I’m scared. I don’t know how I’m going to catch up. Every letter in the mail makes my stomach drop.
Please provide. I don’t know how, but I’m asking. Help me find a way through this. Give me the courage to reach out for help if I need it. And please — let me sleep tonight without replaying numbers in my head.
Amen.
