Prayers for Living
For A Friend in Difficulty
Gracious God, let your grace surround the one I love and give
them hope in their troubles. It is
hard for me to hear the sadness and despair in their voice, and I feel helpless
to erase their pain. The words of
comfort I offer are merely temporary band-aids. It is your healing touch alone that will
bring light into their darkness, hope into their heart, joy into their
soul. Sweep gently through their
life that their struggle may cease and they may know your peace. I ask this for
the sake of your love. Amen.
