A Prayer Before Therapy
Loving God, I come to You before this time of therapy. You know the thoughts I carry and the wounds I cannot see clearly. Walk with me now.
Give me honesty to speak what is true, and courage to face what is hard. Grant my counselor wisdom and kindness. Thank You for the gift of help, and for the hands and minds that bring it.
Quiet my fears, Lord. Let me not be ashamed to ask for care. Use this hour for my healing, and lead me step by step toward wholeness and peace.
I place myself in Your gentle hands, in Jesus' name, Amen.
When to Pray This
Pray this in the quiet moments before a counseling or therapy session, or on the drive there. It can also steady your heart afterward, as you rest in God's care for the work you are doing.
A Verse to Hold On To
"The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit." — Psalm 34:18 (KJV)
