Prayer For Peace Into Old Age

Father, You are great and mighty and worthy to be praised, for You have promised to carry me, to sustain me and to hold me steady even into my old age. Thank You that in You there is nothing in life for about which I need be concerned, for I am safe in Your hands, knowing that You will uphold me with Your righteous right hand.

Speak Your perfect peace into my heart I pray, in the midst of the troublesome circumstances in which I find myself, and keep me resting in Your love and abiding in Your precious peace, in the strong assurance that You are mighty to save in every season of life.

Thank You for the thrill of childhood, the experience of youth and the lessons of adulthood. And now, as I face the twilight years of my life, I thank You Father, for Your never failing promises and Your ever present sustaining power.

Flood my mind with Your peace I pray, and enable me to sleep at night in tranquillity of heart, knowing that the angel of Your presence is with me throughout the hours of darkness. Praise the Lord O my soul, and all that is within me bless His holy name. In Jesus' name I pray,

Amen.
