Prayer tools: Renewal prayer

Lord, please help me to notice when I am operating out of fear, anxiety, or anger. Thank you for your love and presence.

We are emotional beings. Emotions can give us important information if we invite them to do so instead of suppressing or ignoring them. Fear, anxiety, or anger are often triggered by threats to our sense of security, self-worth, or control. Recognising the perceived threat enables us to invite Jesus to meet our need to be loved and secure. This frees us from seeking to manipulate others to meet our needs.
