A Prayer For When We’re Not As Okay As We Say
About this episode
A Prayer for When We’re Not As Okay As We Say
Loving God,
When we are not as okay as we say we are,
you already know.
You see what we carry,
even when we don’t acknowledge it,
even when we try to move past it.
Help us to be honest—
not harsh with ourselves,
but willing to tell the truth
about what is really there.
Give us the courage
to name what we feel
without guilt or shame.
And in that honesty,
help us remain grounded—
held in your presence,
and rooted in a purpose
greater than what we are facing.
Guide us in what we are here for.
Lead us forward
with determination,
with strength,
and with love.
Amen.
