A Prayer for Peace When the World Feels Chaotic
Keri Eichberger
Author of Win Over WorryWhen the news is overwhelming, emotions run high, and the future feels uncertain, Jesus offers something the world cannot: lasting peace. In this prayerful reflection, we turn to the One who calms every stormānot by removing the chaos, but by speaking peace into the middle of it. Let this prayer guide you into stillness, reminding you that God is not shakenāeven when the world is. Lord Jesus, Tonight Iām surrounded by noise, worry, and headlines that stir fear. But You said in John 14:27 that You give us peaceānot like the world gives, but something deeper. Eternal. Unshakable. So I come to You, asking for peace in the middle of chaos. Quiet the fear in my heart. Still the storm in my thoughts. Help me rest in the truth that You are still on the throne, even when everything around me feels unstable. Guard my mind and heart. Help me breathe deeply, pray faithfully, and trust fully. Let me be a carrier of peace to othersāa light in this anxious world. In Your name I rest, Amen.
