Prayer: Prayer for Peace of Mind
You, St. Joseph, who worked silently with your hands and kept the Holy Family safe, I turn to you in my restless mind. As a provider and protector you brought calm to everyday tasks, grant me that same peace now. Help me to quiet my thoughts, to trust that God's will is carried out in my life. Fill my heart with the serenity you showed while caring for the Savior. I ask you to intercede for me, to steady my breathing and still my anxieties. Pray for us, that we may walk forward with a calm and steady spirit, guided by your gentle example.
