Your greatness, I am in DESPERATE need of your salvation, your safety, your warmth. I haven’t completely lost all hope for this world, but I cannot deal with this life anymore…when did everything begin to fall apart? I feel like I have the weight of the world on my shoulders and my knees can’t lift this burden of stress any longer; I am lonely, my heart is aching and cracking like broken glass. People have become more cold and careless, I am not sure who I can trust. When I speak, others speak over me as if my words are meaningless. I pour my heart out about my troubles, struggles and discouragements in life and no one ever produces any meaningful words of encouragement. They doubt my talents or ignore them as if they are foolish games. I feel useless, however I know that is untrue. I was placed on this earth to fulfill the duty of caring for others, even though I do not get that same respect in return. I’ve never asked for it, I hardly asked for anything. I just assumed that others would take part in a kind gesture.
God, I am asking you to keep me safe in your arms, guide me on this journey called life. Keep me on the right path and remove all thoughts of negativity and discouragement (whether it be people, places or things) from my life. Please remove these frequent periods of depression from my mind, body and spirit. I am asking you to bring more of those into my life who are destined to love, want to love and show the world their greatness. Surround me with these people; People who want to learn and not bask in ignorance and tomfoolery. I am asking you to teach others to be considerate and to teach them that the world does NOT revolve around any of us; that we are in this struggle TOGETHER. Teach others to help and care for one another. God, I am asking you to help me spread your love and grace to others so that they will have the mentality to want to be better people and live a better life. I want to be a better person, a happier person. I put my life in your hands, God. For now and eternity.
In all that is great and merciful, in your name I pray…
Amen.
