Prayer of the Week 1 August 2021

Christ our Lord, your word says that we should cast all our anxieties on you because you care for us.
We must not be anxious about anything,
but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving,
we should present our requests to you, and your peace, which transcends all understanding,
will guard our hearts and our minds in Christ Jesus.
And so, Lord, we come as we are, trusting that you will give us your rest and peace in Jesus’ name.
Amen
