When we’re feeling up against it

Here’s a little prayer from my The Animal Lovers’ Daily Prayer Book, first published in The Little Book of Cat Prayers. Its theme is very simple: trust in God when we’re feeling up against it, overwhelmed by the scale of the problems we’re facing and our inability to meet them.

I’m so small, Lord,
and life’s dangers are so huge.
Protect me,
and keep me safe.
Amen.
