IF YOU ARE DOWN EMOTIONALLY,
Pray with me…
Lord, here I am again with trembling hands and a heavy heart.
I don’t have the right words anymore, just tears and whispers.
I have tried to be strong, but I am burdened.
I have tried to carry the weight, but it is crushing me.
I have smiled in public, but in secret, my heart has been breaking.
So I come to You, not with fancy words but with a plea:
Help me.
Help me when the world feels too loud and my faith feels too small.
Help me when bills pile up, when responsibilities drown me, when I feel I am not enough.
Help me when silence feels like an answer, when waiting feels like a punishment, when hope feels like a stranger.
Lord, see my tears.
They are not just drops of water, they are prayers.
Each one carries a story, a wound, a need.
And I lay them all at Your feet.
“You are close to the brokenhearted and save those who are crushed in spirit.” (Psalm 34:18)
You said You will never leave nor forsake me.
God, I hold onto those promises like a lifeline.
I do not ask for riches. I do not ask for glory.
I ask for peace, for strength, for courage to stand when everything in me wants to fall.
I ask for light in the darkness, hope in despair, joy in sorrow.
I ask that You take this burden, this mounting pressure, this overwhelming weight and exchange it for Your rest.
Lord, hear my plea.
I am not perfect, but I am Yours.
Even here, in the middle of the storm,
You are still God.
So I will wait. I will trust. I will hold on to You, even if it’s just by a thread because You are the God who hears.
And one day, I will look back and see that these tears, these prayers, these nights of pleading were the very bricks You used to build my testimony.
Amen.
Share this with someone you love and want to see healed.
