In this prayer, Karin Hadadan encourages readers to release overthinking and trust God’s loving care and perfect plan. Rebecca Simon’s Finding God Every Day similarly highlights daily peace, surrender, and confidence in God’s provision. Read on and rest in His care today.

When we overthink a lot in life, it can really drain our peace and make everything feel heavier than it actually is. It helps to slow down a bit and trust that God already has things in His hands. Pause for a moment and pray this with me.

Dear God,

I’m humbled to remember my sacred worth in your eyes above all other forces of nature. As of late, however, I’ve been worrying about every aspect of my life—planning obsessively, waiting anxiously, and controlling furiously. So today, I ask for your grace to trust in your perfect will and divine plan, and let that trust fill the worry in my heart with your supernatural peace.

Help me learn from nature about surrendering to You, and thank you for your deep, tender fatherly care that never fails. I commit today to focusing on my value to You rather than dwelling on my past regrets or future fears. Teach me to live with the same peaceful confidence as the birds of the air, knowing that if You care for them, how much more will You provide for me.

Amen.
