A Prayer to Deal with Bad News - Your Daily Prayer - January 15

When the world feels heavy with troubling headlines, this prayer helps steady your heart in the truth of God’s character and reminds you that His good news always outweighs the bad.

What Is Prayer?

Prayer isn’t a ritual that depends on closing our eyes and putting on holy faces. We don’t have to kneel or sit. We can pray while walking, driving, or working. God responds to a two word cry for help in the middle of a busy afternoon, just like He does to a focused prayer time after reading Scripture in the morning. Praying doesn’t have to be complicated. God delights in any simple words we offer Him.
