Crying to the Lord for Help
Read
Pray
Lord, I call out to you in the midst of ___________ (insert details about your struggles). I know that you will shield me, and lift my head from this struggle. I know you are faithful to respond to this prayer and to work for my good in this situation.
I can lay down and rest because you give me peace. I will wake to a new day and find that you have sustained me when I didn’t think I could continue in this suffering. I will not be afraid of the pain or those who have caused the pain because I know you are there to save me. You will bring me salvation.
You are with me when it feels like it has become too much. You will keep me from getting swept away by the messiness of life. When I face the darkest days and most painful moments, you will help me endure and not let me be destroyed. You are my Lord, my Savior.
Holy Spirit help me in my weakness. I don’t know how to pray through this situation because I don’t see a way out of it, but you see the big picture. Intercede for me, Holy Spirit. May your good and perfect will be done, Father. I trust that your purpose for this suffering in my life will have a good result and you will be with me through it all. Amen.
Listen, Reflect & Journal
May the peace of God that surpasses understanding surround you today.
