I know so many folks, Lord, who just now 
    are facing some difficult choices 
        and  really hard times...    
I lift them up to you in prayer
    that you might bring them healing and peace...
And I offer them this prayer 
    to remind us all
        that we belong to you, 
        that you are always by our side,
        that the way to peace is to put aside
            whatever doesn't lead to you... 
Prayer of Saint Francis de Sales
Don’t look forward in fear
to life’s changes and chances
rather, look to them with confidence 
   that God, to whom you belong,
      will take care of you.
He has guided you thus far in life, 
   and will lead you safely
through all your trials;
don’t fear what may happen tomorrow
   the same loving God who guards
you today
      will care for you today and
every day.
Be at peace, then, 
   and put aside 
      all anxious thoughts and imaginations. 
Amen.
