For those who are struggling

I feel desolate today - Lord lift me up and bring me comfort

I feel broken by the suffering - Lord reach out to touch and mend me 

I have no hope left - Lord restore me with Your  Spirit

I cannot bear the endless pain - Lord give me Your strength to carry me

I am tortured by everything - Lord heal me now, save me now, I beseech You

I am invisible and hurting - Lord help me feel seen and known

I am beaten today - Lord help me keep going

I feel unloved and unloveable - Lord fill me with Your Love. Amen

Not everyone can feel the Joy of Christmas or engage in celebration or interaction. If you are someone struggling at Christmas, may this prayer give strength and bless you. Amen
