Lord, when the paths narrow, the soul grows weary, and joy fades, i come to You with a broken heart, longing for Your life-giving presence
You who see my depths and know my weakness,
Do not let me get lost in the darkness, but be my light and guide in every moment of doubt and fear
Teach me to trust You when answers are delayed, and to hold onto Your promises when the heavens seem silent
Grant me peace that suffering cannot shake, and hope that trials cannot extinguish
Strengthen me to remain faithful to You, even when I don’t understand Your plan, and give me a heart that loves You in both joy and sorrow
I believe You are with me, even when I don’t feel You, and that Your love never fails
.Amen
