Caregivers

Caregivers

“For I know the plans I have for you”, declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11

Lord, help me see Your presence in the midst of daily struggles. Replace my weary moments with Your infinite strength. Embrace me with Your loving arms when I feel isolated and alone. Reassure me with Your perfect peace when I am overwhelmed and anxious. Lead me towards compassion and love amidst moments of frustration and sadness. Today and every day Guide me to the simple gestures I can do to ease another’s suffering. Remind me in moments of weakness that with Your help I have everything I need to carry on.

Heavenly Father, You know how deep my grief is. I long for the touch of a hand, the sound of a voice that is stilled. You are merciful and kind. You will comfort my wounded heart. Wipe the tears from my eyes. Thank You for understanding so well our poor human hearts and for letting us lean on You. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Lord, I know that You comprehend the depth of my grief. Please, Lord, take some of this pain from me, for I cannot bear it all alone. Please give me the grace to relinquish my sorrow to You, bit by bit, as I am ready. And then, Lord, fill my empty spaces in whatever ways are best for me.

O merciful Father, who hast taught us in Thy holy Word that
 Thou dost not willingly afflict or grieve the children of men:
 Look with pity upon the sorrows of Thy servant for whom 
our prayers are offered. Remember him, O Lord, in mercy,
 nourish his soul with patience, comfort him with a sense of
 Thy goodness, lift up Thy countenance upon him, and give
 him peace; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
