St. Patrick's Day Prayer for Protection

Almighty God,

I wrap myself in Your protection today. Be my shield and my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble. Go before me to prepare the way, stand beside me as my companion, and follow behind me to guard my steps.

Protect me from harm, both seen and unseen. Guard my mind from negative thoughts, my heart from bitterness, and my spirit from discouragement. Surround me with Your angels and cover me with Your peace.

"The Lord will keep you from all harm—he will watch over your life." - Psalm 121:7

In Your protection I trust, Amen.
