Japanese “Lord Jesus, you said, ‘Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you.’ Quiet my mind, take the fear out of my heart, and let me rest in you today. Amen.” That short prayer for inner peace rests on Jesus’ own promise in John 14:27, and after it come the Serenity Prayer and older prayers for calm.
Prayer and medical help can go together, so if worry or low mood has lasted for weeks, or keeps you from sleeping, eating or working, tell a doctor as well.

The Serenity Prayer
This is the wording that Alcoholics Anonymous found in a memorial notice in the New York Herald Tribune in June 1941 and printed on cards for its members:
God grant me the serenity to accept things I cannot change, courage to change things I can, and wisdom to know the difference.
As printed in the New York Herald Tribune, June 1941, and quoted in Alcoholics Anonymous, “Origin of the Serenity Prayer”
The prayer is usually credited to Reinhold Niebuhr, an American Protestant theologian who taught at Union Theological Seminary in New York. Niebuhr said he wrote it, and his wife and daughter dated it to a Sunday service he led in Heath, Massachusetts, in the early 1940s. Fred Shapiro, editor of the Yale Book of Quotations, later found versions printed in newspapers in the 1930s, so the question of who first wrote it is still argued. According to his wife, Ursula Niebuhr, the form her husband used and preferred was: “God, give us grace to accept with serenity the things that cannot be changed, Courage to change the things which should be changed, and the wisdom to distinguish the one from the other.”
The prayer asks for three things: calm about what cannot be changed, courage for what can, and the judgment to tell which is which. In German it is known as the Gebet der Gelassenheit.
Older prayers for peace
For quiet confidence
The Episcopal Church’s 1928 Book of Common Prayer builds this family prayer from two verses: “in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength” (Isaiah 30:15) and “Be still, and know that I am God” (Psalm 46:10).
O GOD of peace, who hast taught us that in returning and rest we shall be saved, in quietness and in confidence shall be our strength; By the might of thy Spirit lift us, we pray thee, to thy presence, where we may be still and know that thou art God; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
The Book of Common Prayer (1928), Family Prayer, “For Quiet Confidence,” p. 595
For the peace the world cannot give
This collect is said at Evening Prayer, and its central phrase echoes Jesus’ words in John 14:27, “not as the world giveth, give I unto you.”
O GOD, from whom all holy desires, all good counsels, and all just works do proceed; Give unto thy servants that peace which the world cannot give; that our hearts may be set to obey thy commandments, and also that by thee, we, being defended from the fear of our enemies, may pass our time in rest and quietness; through the merits of Jesus Christ our Saviour. Amen.
The Book of Common Prayer (1928), Evening Prayer, “A Collect for Peace,” p. 31
At the end of the day
O LORD, support us all the day long, until the shadows lengthen and the evening comes, and the busy world is hushed, and the fever of life is over, and our work is done. Then in thy mercy grant us a safe lodging, and a holy rest, and peace at the last. Amen.
The Book of Common Prayer (1928), Family Prayer, “At Night,” pp. 594–595
Against racing and fearful thoughts
The Imitation of Christ, the fifteenth-century Catholic devotional book usually attributed to Thomas à Kempis, has a chapter titled “Of four things which bring great peace.” Its advice is to do another’s will rather than your own, to choose to have less rather than more, to seek the lowest place, and to pray that God’s will be done in you. The prayer that follows in the same chapter suits a mind that will not settle:
O Lord my God, be not Thou far from me, my God, haste Thee to help me, for many thoughts and great fears have risen up against me, afflicting my soul. How shall I pass through them unhurt? how shall I break through them? … Do, Lord, as Thou sayest; and let all evil thoughts fly away before Thy face. This is my hope and my only comfort, to fly unto Thee in all tribulation, to hope in Thee, to call upon Thee from my heart and patiently wait for Thy loving kindness.
Thomas à Kempis, The Imitation of Christ, Book 3, chapter 23, “A Prayer against Evil Thoughts,” translated by William Benham
From the Orthodox Great Litany
The Great Litany, said near the start of Orthodox Vespers and the Divine Liturgy, asks for peace before anything else: “In peace let us pray to the Lord. … For the peace that is from above, and for the salvation of our souls … For the peace of the whole world,” and the people answer each one, “Lord, have mercy” (Hapgood, Service Book, 1906, Great Vespers, p. 5). The most quoted Russian saying on the subject belongs to Saint Seraphim of Sarov, a monk who lived from 1754 to 1833: “Acquire the spirit of peace, and a thousand souls will be saved around you.” The Orthodox Church in America quotes it in its life of the saint.
Prayers for a calm mind at particular moments
When thoughts race at night
Lord, it is late and my mind will not stop. I keep going over the same worries. Take them from me for tonight; they will still be there in the morning, and so will you. “I will both lay me down in peace, and sleep: for thou, LORD, only makest me dwell in safety” (Psalm 4:8). Amen.
In the morning, before the day starts
Father, before the phone and the news and the first problem of the day, I give this day to you. “Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning; for in thee do I trust” (Psalm 143:8). Keep me steady when things go wrong. Amen.
When worry has a name
God, I am worried about the test results, the bill, the phone call I am waiting for. Your word says, “Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God” (Philippians 4:6). So here it is: I ask you to take care of it, and I thank you for what you have already done. Amen.
When everything is too much
Jesus, you said, “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28). I have too many things to do and no idea where to start. Show me the one thing to do next, and let the rest wait. Amen.
When anger will not settle
Lord, I am still angry about what was said today, and I keep rehearsing what I should have answered. Cool my temper before I speak again. Your word says, “let not the sun go down upon your wrath” (Ephesians 4:26). Help me let this go before I sleep. Amen.
When you cannot forgive yet
Father, I want to forgive, and I cannot do it on my own. Every time I think of what happened, the peace goes. Begin the forgiving in me, and do not let bitterness take root. Amen.
When an old mistake keeps coming back
God, I have confessed this, and still it follows me. If you have forgiven it, help me to stop punishing myself for it. “Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God” (Psalm 42:5). Amen.
When a decision has to be made
Lord, I have to decide, and both roads frighten me. Give me a clear head, good advice from people who know, and peace about the choice once it is made. Amen.
When you feel alone
Lord, nobody around me seems to understand how I feel. You do. Stay with me, and send me one person I can talk to honestly. “Now the Lord of peace himself give you peace always by all means” (2 Thessalonians 3:16). Amen.
What does the Bible say about inner peace?
In the New Testament, peace is something God gives rather than something a person produces by effort. Jesus told his disciples the night before he died, “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid” (John 14:27). He did not promise them an easy life, for in the same conversation he said, “In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world” (John 16:33).
Paul joins peace to prayer. After telling the Philippians to bring every request to God with thanksgiving, he adds, “And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:7). Isaiah joins it to trust: “Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee” (Isaiah 26:3).
The Gospels also show Jesus bringing calm to a real storm. When his disciples woke him in a sinking boat on the Sea of Galilee, “he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm” (Mark 4:39). The Imitation of Christ borrows the scene in its prayer for a clear mind: “Command Thou the winds and the storms, say unto the sea, ‘Be still,’ say unto the stormy wind, ‘Hold thy peace,’ so shall there be a great calm.” We have gathered more passages in Bible verses about peace, and worry itself is taken up in whether worrying is a sin.
The priestly blessing from the Book of Numbers ends with the same gift and can close any prayer for peace:
The LORD bless thee, and keep thee: The LORD make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee: The LORD lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.
Numbers 6:24–26
Prayer for Inner Peace Amidst Life’s Storms
When life’s troubles come all at once, we can feel like a boat tossed on rough water, and peace seems very far away. That is when prayer holds us steady. When we pray for peace in the middle of a storm we are not only asking for calm; we are telling God that we trust him, the One who rules the wind and the waves. We cannot control the storm, but we know the One who can.
Heavenly Father,
In the midst of tumultuous times, I turn to You, seeking solace and serenity that only Your presence can provide. As the storms of life rage around me, grant me the grace to find tranquility within, anchored in Your love.
Let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard my heart and mind. Teach me to breathe in Your calm, and exhale my fears. Help me to remember that, although the tempest rages, You are the Master of the sea. May I find rest in the knowledge that You are with me, Your hand guiding me through the darkest night.
Grant me the wisdom to navigate these troubled waters, relying not on my own strength, but wholly on You. Illuminate my path with Your light, turning my turmoil into peace, my despair into hope.
In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
Praying this way is an act of faith, because it says that even in our darkest hours we believe a Light is guiding us on. The trouble may not go away, but God is with us in it. In him we find strength for the storm, rest for a restless heart and hope for each new day.
Prayer for the Gift of Tranquility Despite Uncertainties
In a world that changes as fast as ours, we can spend a long time looking for calm when nothing is certain. This prayer does not ask God to take life’s storms away. It asks for a calm inside us that lasts because it rests deep in faith, so that our hearts can stand firm like a lighthouse in a gale, guided by God’s light.
Heavenly Father,
In this whirlwind of life, where change is the only constant, I seek the gift of Your tranquility. Amidst the uncertainties that cloud my path, Your light is the beacon that guides me. Grant me the serenity that comes not from understanding all, but trusting in You above all.
Teach me to embrace the unknown with a heart full of peace, knowing You navigate the ship of my life. Let Your promise of presence be the anchor that holds firm, even when waves of worry seek to overturn. May Your whispers of comfort outshine the loudest storms, reminding me that I am never alone.
In moments of doubt, remind me of the strength found in serenity—a strength that does not falter, for it is rooted in divine assurance. Help me to live each day with faith as my compass, guiding me toward Your eternal peace.
Amen.
This prayer asks us to trust God more deeply than we have before. Life stays complicated, but through faith we can find the peace that passes understanding. Like trees that bend in the wind without breaking, may our spirits stay supple and firm, always reaching up toward the light of God’s love and peace.
Prayer for Finding Inner Harmony and Balance
A balanced life is a little like music, where every note plays its part. In our lives the notes are our daily choices, our feelings and our dealings with other people. With so many demands pulling at us, that balance can be hard to find, and so we turn to prayer. We ask God to bring us back to an inner peace where our spirit is in step with his purpose and our lives show his grace and harmony.
Heavenly Father,
In the quietude of this moment, I come before You seeking the serenity that comes from Your divine presence. Lord, You are the Composer of life, orchestrating the perfect balance in the natural world. I pray for that same balance within my soul – a harmonious blend of strength and gentility, courage and humility, speaking and listening.
Grant me the wisdom to prioritize my life in a manner that honors You, bringing balance to my commitments, relationships, and personal time. Help me to understand that like the ebb and flow of the tides, life requires a rhythm of rest and activity. Teach me to find contentment in Your plan, knowing that You guide me towards inner peace and fulfillment.
Lord, infuse my spirit with Your peace so that I may be a beacon of harmony in a discordant world. Let Your love anchor me, preventing the winds of worldly concerns from tipping the scales of my soul. With every breath, may I inhale Your peace and exhale the turmoil within.
Amen.
We do not reach that balance once and keep it; we find it day by day, walking with God. As on a river, there will be smooth stretches and rough water. In prayer we ask God to steer our boat and to teach us joy and peace in the balance he gives. In his hands our lives can hold doing and being, giving and receiving, together, as he means them to.
Prayer for Quietness of Heart in Our Daily Struggles
When the day feels like a storm, a quiet heart is like a shelter from it, a calm harbour inside us while the waves crash outside. This prayer invites God’s peace into our lives and trusts that, underneath all the noise, his calm is waiting to hold us.
Heavenly Father,
In the hustle of today and the uncertainty of tomorrow, I seek Your sacred stillness. Amidst the whirlwind of worries, grant me a heart tranquil and true. Like a river flows gently to the sea, guide my spirit to the quiet shores of Your grace.
In every challenge, let me find Your peace; in every storm, Your unchanging hand. Teach me, Lord, to listen for Your whisper when the world screams loud. In moments of weakness, be the strength that steadies my heart. When shadows loom, let Your light shine within me, a beacon of hope and calm.
May my soul reflect the stillness of a dawn untouched by storm, trusting in Your love that moves silently, powerfully, through all things. For in You, every restless heart finds rest, every troubled mind, clarity.
Amen.
A quiet heart lets us face life’s battles calmly, because we know we are not alone in them. This prayer is a step toward that peace. Even in the eye of the storm there is a stillness that passes all understanding, and it is there for us whenever we turn toward it. Let this prayer be an anchor, holding us steady when life’s troubles seem as wide as the ocean.
Prayer of Serenity in Dealing with Worries and Fears
When the world seems to be spinning out of control, worries and fears can come over us like waves over a small boat. Then we look for a lighthouse, or rather for Someone, to bring us safely home. Praying for serenity in our worries and fears gives us that light. When we pray sincerely, we ask God to steer our boat, and we remember that he is in control even when our circumstances say otherwise.
Heavenly Father,
In the quietude of this moment, I lay before You the bundle of my worries and fears. They are heavy, Lord, heavier than I can bear alone. In Your Word, You have promised us peace that surpasses all understanding, and today, I cling to that promise.
Grant me, I pray, the serenity to accept the things I cannot change. Courage, dear Lord, to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference. Let Your peace fill my heart, a peace not as the world gives, one that does not fade with the setting sun or diminish in the storm.
As a shepherd leads his sheep to still waters, guide my spirit to the tranquility found only in Your presence. Replace my fears with faith, my worry with worship, and my anxiety with awe of Your mighty power. Though the tempest rages, I choose to rest in the boat with You, trusting in Your command over all things.
For it’s in surrendering my all to You that I find true serenity. Amen.
Praying for serenity calms us and strengthens us at once, and it reminds us that we are not alone with our fears and worries. The way to serenity begins with one simple act of faith, a prayer. When we cast our cares on God, we hand him our burdens and receive his peace in return. And in asking for his help, we also confess that he is sovereign and good in every circumstance. Prayer gives strength and courage to anyone fighting an addiction, too, and in it we can find the hope and support we need to break free and to have peace and balance in our lives again. Prayer also guides us through life’s complications, giving us direction and clarity when things are uncertain. Even for someone just beginning to pray, it is a simple way to come to God and find inner peace. When we make it a habit and give our worries and anxieties to God, the source of all comfort and strength, he can change us deeply.
Prayer for Comfort in Times of Inner Turmoil
When everything inside us is in turmoil and the soul feels like a ship tossed in a storm, prayer can hold us fast in faith and hope. When we pray for comfort, we are not running away from our troubles; we are asking for the strength to face them, with hearts made strong by God’s compassion and understanding. Prayer also lets us reach out in compassion to others who are struggling. When we offer prayers for the souls in purgatory, we show that we believe in the power of intercession and want to help those who need spiritual support. As we do, we find comfort ourselves and share in the healing of all souls in need.
Dear Lord,
In this hour of inner turmoil, where my thoughts rage uncontrollably and peace seems but a distant memory, I turn to You, seeking the comfort only You can provide. As a child runs to their parent’s arms for solace, so do I come to You now, O Father of infinite mercy and love.
Grant me the grace of Your divine comfort, to calm the storms that rage within my heart and mind. Let Your presence be a balm to my restless spirit, soothing the waves of anxiety and despair. Help me to remember that, like Peter walking on water during the storm, keeping my eyes fixed on You allows me to rise above the tempests of life.
Instill in me an unwavering trust in Your providence, that I may find tranquility amidst tribulation, and hope in the face of fear. Empower me to embrace Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guarding my heart and my mind in Christ Jesus.
Amen.
When we look for comfort in prayer in times of inner turmoil, we remember that we are not alone in our struggles. This prayer lights the way to inner peace in the storm. It renews our faith that God’s love and support do not waver, and that even in our darkest moments his light can lead us back to peace and calm. So let us hold fast to his promise of comfort and strength, however much chaos there is within us.
Prayer for Peace During Difficult Times
When life is turned upside down, inner peace can seem like a distant dream, and life’s storms can unsettle our spirits and hide the way ahead. Yet those are the very moments when prayer gives us the most hope and calm. When we ask God for help, our resolve grows firmer and we remember that he is always with us, guiding us through our darkest hours. So let us open our hearts and ask him for peace in these difficult times, and receive the strength it brings to our weary souls.
Heavenly Father,
In this moment of unrest and confusion, I seek Your presence with a humble heart. Like a boat tossed about by relentless waves, my spirit struggles to find its calm amidst the storm. Grant me, O Lord, the peace that surpasses all understanding, to anchor my being in Your unchanging love.
Illuminate my path with Your light, that I might see beyond this temporal turmoil. Bestow upon me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, and the courage to face the challenges that lie ahead. Let Your wisdom be my guide, turning my fears into faith, my despair into hope.
In the shelter of Your wings, remind me of the promise that no storm lasts forever. May this trial not be my downfall but rather a testament to Your grace and power at work within me. Through this journey, mold me into a vessel of Your peace, radiating Your love to those around me.Amen.
Praying for peace in difficult times is like lighting a candle in the dark. It may not drive away every shadow, but it lights our steps toward a new dawn of hope and strength. This prayer does not take us out of our trials; it changes how we see them. It invites God’s eternal peace into our troubled world, and even in life’s storms we know we are never alone. When we pray for peace, we join countless others who are also looking for comfort and understanding, and our prayers together reach the hearts and minds of the people around us. May our prayers for peace go on bringing comfort and courage to all who are in need.
Prayer for Tranquility in the Midst of Chaos
When life is chaotic, looking for calm can feel like looking for a needle in a haystack. Yet inner peace can grow right in the middle of the chaos, the way a lotus flower blooms in muddy water. This prayer is meant to shine through the fog of confusion and distress and bring comfort to weary hearts.
Heavenly Father,
In the clamor and chaos that envelop me, I seek Your presence as my sanctuary. Grant me the tranquility that surpasses all understanding, a peace that anchors my soul amidst life’s storms. As the waves of uncertainty crash around me, let me be like the still water, undisturbed, reflecting Your grace and poise.
Lord, in Your wisdom, You have shown us that peace is not the absence of turmoil but the presence of divinity within it. Help me to find You in every moment, recognizing that each challenge is an opportunity to experience Your love and strength more deeply.
Guide me to cultivate inner silence, even when the world roars. Teach me to draw from the well of Your calmness, letting it overflow into my thoughts, words, and actions. May my heart be a haven of peace, radiating Your light to those engulfed in their own chaos.
Amen.
We do not walk through chaos alone, because prayer goes with us. This prayer asks God for his calm in the middle of turmoil, and it reminds us that his unshakeable peace is already within us, waiting to be awakened. When we take hold of it, we do more than survive the chaos: we can grow in it, and carry a sanctuary of peace with us wherever we go.
Prayer for the Grace of Calmness in Trying Times
Life can feel like a maze, and we often find ourselves standing where turmoil and calm meet. Our search for calm in the storm comes from a deep longing to shelter under the wings of God’s grace. This prayer asks God to fill our spirit with peace and steadiness when life’s waves threaten the peace within us.
Heavenly Father,
In the echoing tumult of life’s trials, I reach out for Your serene touch. Grant me, I beseech, the grace of calmness in these trying times. As a boat amidst the tempest, let Your word be my compass, steering me towards tranquility. In moments of despair, when my heart is aflutter with uncertainties, cloak me in Your peace that surpasses all understanding.
Lord, teach my heart to dwell in the assurance of Your promises. May Your unwavering presence remind me that, like the seasons, challenges too shall pass. Strengthen my soul, that I may stand firm, rooted in faith, not swayed by the gusts of worry. Illuminate my path with the light of Your wisdom, guiding me to react not with fear but with courage and grace.
In Your loving kindness, sprinkle drops of patience upon my spirit, teaching me to endure with an unshakeable calm. For in Your hands, I find the resilience to weather any storm. Lead me to still waters, where my heart can embrace Your peace in the midst of chaos.
Amen.
Asking for calm in trying times is like planting seeds of faith in the good soil of our souls. It takes patience and trust, and the gentle reminder that we are not making this journey alone. This prayer shows the strength our faith gives us to face the storm with hearts anchored in God’s peace. Each time we whisper amen, we give ourselves to that peace again and find comfort in our Creator’s embrace.
Prayer to Calm the Troubles of the Mind
When worries and fears swirl through our minds like waves on a stormy sea, there is great strength in asking God to step in. A prayer to calm the troubles of the mind holds us steady like an anchor. In it we ask for more than comfort: we ask God to quiet the storm raging inside us. Like a lighthouse guiding ships through the night, the prayer lights our way to peace.
Heavenly Father,
In this moment of unrest, I reach out to You, my rock and my shelter. My mind feels like a tempestuous sea—thoughts crashing and colliding in chaos. But in Your presence, I seek tranquility. Lord, calm the storms that rage within me. Let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, envelop my mind. As David found solace in Your strength, let me too find rest in the shadow of Your wings.
Teach me, O Lord, to cast my burdens upon You, for You care deeply for me. Guide my thoughts towards Your eternal light, dispelling the shadows of doubt and fear. Help me to trust in Your plan, finding peace in the knowledge that You are with me through every storm.
In Jesus’ Name, I pray,
Amen.
A prayer like this is a heartfelt plea for God’s help in our darkest hours. It teaches us that even in the tumult inside us there is a sanctuary of peace, open to us through faith. The prayer carries us like a bridge over troubled water from turmoil to calm. When we lay our burdens before the Almighty, we remember his endless love and his power to bring order to our chaos. Through prayer the mind’s turbulence can be soothed until we find the calm beyond the storm.
Prayer to Face Challenges with a Peaceful Spirit
Facing life’s challenges can feel like sailing through a stormy sea, where the waves of hardship unsettle us and threaten to drown us in despair. Finding peace in the middle of those trials is like reaching the eye of the storm, where all is calm. This prayer asks God for a peaceful spirit that meets challenges with grace and turns them into stepping stones toward spiritual growth and inner peace.
Heavenly Father,
In this moment of contemplation, I seek Your presence to infuse my spirit with an unshakeable peace. As I journey through the valleys of trials and the mountains of challenges, grant me the serene courage to face each day with a heart anchored in Your love. Like a sturdy ship braves the tempestuous seas, let my soul remain steadfast in Your promises, undisturbed by the tumult of the world.
Lord, imbue me with patience to embrace every difficulty as an opportunity to grow closer to You. Teach me to perceive obstacles through the lens of faith, knowing that with You, all things contribute to my ultimate good. Grant me the wisdom to discern the lessons hidden within trials and the strength to persevere with a tranquil heart.
May Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard my mind and heart in Christ Jesus. Let it flow through me like a river, refreshing those around me with its calming embrace. In embracing Your peace, may I reflect Your unwavering love and grace to the world.
Amen.
Facing challenges with a peaceful spirit does not mean pretending our struggles are not real; it means meeting them with a calm heart rooted in faith. Our peace inside does not depend on what happens around us. It depends on our steady relationship with God. Through prayer he gives us the strength to turn our battles into bridges that bring us closer to peace and spiritual fulfilment. When we pray in our spiritual battles, we know we are not fighting them alone, because God supports and guides us. When we give our struggles to God, we open ourselves to his help and grace. Through prayer we find comfort and strength in hard times, and we meet life’s challenges with peace and resilience.
