Tuesday Prayer: I'm Giving This to You

Father, I'm exhausted from trying to handle everything myself. Work, family, finances, health - I'm managing it all, keeping the weight on my shoulders because asking for help feels like weakness. But self-reliance is exhausting me and accomplishing nothing. Worry doesn't change circumstances; it just drains my energy.

Help me cast my anxiety on you - not just once but repeatedly as problems persist and circumstances change. Teach me to distinguish between my responsibility and yours. I'm responsible for faithful action with what's in my control. You're responsible for outcomes beyond my control. Help me do my part and trust you with yours.

Right now, I'm worried about [specific concern]. I can [specific actions I can take] - and I will. But the outcome is yours. I'm giving this worry to you. When it resurfaces, remind me that I already gave it to you. You're handling it. I'll focus on what I can control and trust you with what I can't.
