Father,
Please help us in our times of distress to remember You are close by. In our struggles and hurts we can so easily feel alone and forgotten. We have no one else but You. Help us to be aware of You in our need. Help us to know that you are with us no matter what we face, and You are our shield and our refuge. In our brokenness and hurt, please fix and heal us. You are the Holy One and the only God. Help us in our despair, help us because we are lost without You. You are the great and mighty One. We can be such a mess, but we need only You…please let us know You are near. May Your name always be praised. Come quickly, Lord!
In Jesus’ name,
Amen
