When I am Lost

When I am Lost

Be with me, God. I feel so lost. I can't seem to escape the dark cloud

that is hanging over me today. Help me, God. Give me strength

to combat despair and fear. Show me how to put my pain

into perspective. Teach me to have faith in the new day

that is coming. Thank you, God, for today's blessings,

for tomorrow's hope, and for Your abiding love.

Amen.

 

Teach me always to believe in my power to return to life, to hope, and to You, God,

no matter what pains I have endured, no matter how far I have strayed from You.

Give me the strength to resurrect my weary spirit.

Revive me, God, so I can embrace life once more

in joy, in passion, in peace.

Amen.

 

When I feel tainted, God, remind me that I am holy.

When I feel weak, teach me that I am strong.

When I am shattered, assure me that I can heal.

When I am weary, renew my spirit.

When I am lost, show me that you are near.

Amen.

 

May God heal you, body and soul.

May your pain cease,

May your strength increase,

May your fears be released,

May blessings, love and joy surround you.

Amen.
