Scripture Prayer

Don’t fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God’s wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It’s wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life.

(Philippians 4:6-7 MSG)

Pray this prayer for your loved one every day this week, filling in the blanks with their name/pronoun.

This prayer is taken from 1 Corinthians 13:4-8;1 Thessalonians 3:11-13
