This prayer is for use by those of us who live with agoraphobia, which I have suffered with for many years. It can be said when facing any feared situation. If written clearly on a card, or learned by heart (preferably both), it can also be repeated throughout a panic attack, whilst waiting as patiently and courageously as possible for the terror to ease. Then we can slowly continue towards our goal.
Your hand will guide me, and your strength support me (Psalm 139:10; NLT).
Jesus,
Guide and Counsellor,
You know the cross I bear.
Jesus,
Mighty God and King,
You walk with me, and care.
Jesus,
Everlasting Saviour,
You are always here.
Jesus,
Shepherd, Prince of Peace,
Please help me face this fear.
Come quickly to help me, O Lord, my saviour (Psalm 38:22; NLT).
