Your Gentle Kingdom
A Gentle Prayer

Short prayers for every season of life.

A few quiet minutes with God, for peace, for the weary and the waiting, for strength and new beginnings, and for rest at night. Each prayer comes with a verse from the King James Bible. Tap any one to pray along.

Prayers for peace and rest

When your mind won't stop and you need a moment of stillness with God.

“Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”

Philippians 4:6-7 (KJV)

Father, today our hearts are with Nepal. Hold close every family who has lost someone. Be near to those who are still waiting. Give strength to those searching, and comfort to those who are grieving. And when the night feels too heavy, let them feel that they are not forgotten. Bring hope to Nepal. Amen.

Love. Faith. Hope. A Gentle Prayer.
