Prayer during tensed times

Merciful God, grant me the patience to handle the pressures and tensions in my life. Be with me I pray because your very presence will work wonders for my mind and soul. Help me to understand the needs of my family, organization and community. In every uphill task I see the possibility of success when you are with me God. Whenever I hit a road block your smile and reassurance can make any bad day into a great day. Be with me constantly I pray, because without you Lord, I am nothing. Teach me to love, care, be patient, understanding and positive. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
