When our grief is heavy, and we don't know what to do, God, we know tomorrow still begins and ends in you. When we feel abandoned, and we're tempted to despair, God, we need assurance that you hear and answer prayer. When our spirits falter, and we think all hope is gone, God we seek your presence and the courage to go on. When we find no comfort, and in pain we draw each breath, God, we long for wholeness, trusting you in life and death.
