trials come and go. First tendency is to panic then get down on our knees to pray for help.
but... there is something else that we should pray for that would relieve us of all the stress and worries.
What would that be??

Matthew 6:25
Therefore I tell you, stop being perpetually uneasy (anxious and worried) about your life, what you shall eat or what you shall drink; or about your body, what you shall put on. Is not life greater [in quality] than food, and the body [far above and more excellent] than clothing?
1 Peter 5:7
Casting the whole of your care [all your anxieties, all your worries, all your concerns, once and for all] on Him, for He cares for you affectionately and cares about you watchfully. [Ps 55:22 ]
He don't want you to worried to begin with , but if you do He ask you to cast ALL to Him more or less TRUST IN HIM... Worrie isn't your fault Trust is ...Sorry if I sound so pushy or something I am just trying to help..

We should pray for faith and encouragement to help us to persevere as well as praying that God will use the trial to make us more like Jesus and to teach us what He would have us to learn as a result of whatever trial He has brought or allowed into our lives.
Faith that God will not allow us to be tried beyond what we are able to bear and the knowledge that He works all things together for good are great helps in times of trial.
1 Corinthians 10:13 No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.
Romans 8:28 And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. 29 For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, in order that he might be the firstborn among many brothers.
It's also good to pray for strength to resist the evil one.
1 Peter 5:6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, 7 casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you. 8 Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. 9 Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same kinds of suffering are being experienced by your brotherhood throughout the world. 10 And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you. 11 To him be the dominion forever and ever. Amen.

You can pray all you want about anything but Gods will is Gods will in whatever happens.

Non-existent gods don't trial you, and don't listen to you either.
Gods are not responsible for life and death, the weather, earthquakes, tsunami's, droughts, volcano's, and all the rest that cause misery in our life's on earth. Neither are there any gods responsible for the good in your life.

Praying in itself is flawed. By doing so, you're basically begging God to change his divine plan and that he's doing a crappy job maintaining it from your viewpoint. I can't imagine he would like you trying to boss him around all the time.
