Prayers for Healing
A Prayer While Awaiting Test Results
A contemporary pastoral prayer for medical waiting — biopsies, scans, diagnoses — grounded in Christ's teaching not to be anxious about tomorrow (Matthew 6:34).
God, the waiting is its own affliction.
My mind runs ahead into every possible outcome and lives each one before it happens.
Call me back to this hour, which is the only one you have given me.
Whatever the result, you already know it, and you are already there.
Give me sleep tonight, and courage for the phone call.
Whatever comes, you will not leave me. Amen.
Contemporary pastoral prayer based on Matthew 6:34
About the prayer
It names anticipatory dread as a real burden rather than a lack of faith.
