Prayer for My Upcoming Double Mastectomy Surgery
All-Powerful Father, please be with me during my upcoming surgery. I will be undergoing a double mastectomy and simultaneous reconstruction. Many fears and doubtful thoughts course through my mind. I am worried about how my body will react to the surgery, that the removal will not go well, that something will go wrong. Please cleanse me of those.

In every moment of fear or worry, please be there, Jesus. I know You love me as Your child. I ask this in Your loving name, Amen.

Compassionate Father, I know that You made me in Your beautiful image. I am wonderfully and fearfully designed on the inside and out.
