Why a site about prayer?

The purpose of this site is to encourage us to each go deeper in our prayer life. One way that we do that is by praying together. Another way we do that is by praying individually yet collectively on the same prayer themes. Our hope is that as we share prayers and reflect on them and pray over them at the same time in our individual lives, the Holy Spirit will speak to each of us and allow us to encourage and edify one another in prayer.

Prayer for Rest

Lord, You are the giver of rest. Help me trust that You have everything under control, and that my job is not to juggle everything, but to hand all of my burdens over to You, the all-powerful, able, strong God.

  1. I lay everything down at your feet this week, Father. Everything I feel is impossible. Everything that is overwhelming. And I turn to you for rest. Remove my spirit of striving and give me a spirit of abiding in you. Amen.

  2. Lord Jesus, help me to continue to turn to you for rest. Let me lay everything at your feet in surrender. Remove my spirit of striving and give me a spirit of abiding. Amen.
