Dear God, I am crying out to you in my loss and deep grief. I am confused and don’t understand why my life seems to be in such turmoil and pain, but I look to You for comfort and strength to see me through.My eyes are looking to You Lord Jesus, and I am praying that I might understand why this terrible tragedy has hit. I am trusting You, Lord, to give me the strength to face the inevitable difficulties that will come in the wake of this dreadful catastrophe.Calm my troubled heart I pray, and pour into my heart a peace that only comes from You and a strength to keep going in this time of distress. Though my heart is breaking and I feel utterly crushed in spirit,my eyes are looking to You and I will hope in my Saviour to carry me through in Your everlasting arms of comfort and peace.I believe that Your mercies are new every morning and that You will show me Your mercy and comfort today. Although I feel that I have been walking through the valley of the shadow of death, I know that I need fear no evil for You are with me. Lead me Lord, into Your way of peace. In Jesus’ name,
Amen.
