Precious God, I’m comforted with Your word that You will renew the strengths of those who trust You. I trust You, O Lord. Lord, You know my heart and struggles. My heart aches every time I remember my mother. Today is especially hard because it’s the day she left us and went to be with You in heaven. I miss her dearly. I miss her voice, smile, laugh, affection and kindness. I miss her everything. Nothing can bring her back or replace her presence in my life. Lord, I ask you to give me strength to overcome this grief and grace to always turn to You when the burden becomes too much to bear. Renew my spirit and mend my broken heart. Please hold my hand and guide my day. Only You can fill my heart with joy and peace. I have no other place to turn to. I depend on You alone.
Help me trust that You’re right there beside me and You will never leave my side no matter how tough the situation gets. Help me to see Your goodness despite the heartache. Help me to recognize that You are God and You are in control. Sustain me by Your grace so that my trust and faith in You may not fail.
I pray this in Your name. Amen.
