Night Prayer After a Bad Day at Work

For coming home drained, frustrated or hurt after a hard workday.

“For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.”

Psalm 30:5 (KJV)

Lord, today was a hard day at work. I feel tired, frustrated and discouraged. I keep replaying what went wrong.

Help me leave work at work tonight. Heal any hurt from harsh words. Forgive me where I fell short, and help me forgive others.

Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning. Let joy come in the morning.

Give me good sleep and a fresh start tomorrow. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Short prayer to remember

Lord, let joy come in the morning. Give me rest tonight. Amen.
