Evening Prayer on Psalm 22:1

My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from helping me, and from the words of my groaning?

Psalm 22:1 · KJV

Today’s prayer

Written prayer

"Lord Jesus, thank You for Your sacrificial love and the pain You endured on the cross for my sins. It was You who cried out on a cross, “My God, my God, why have You forsaken me?” You endured the painful separation from God that I deserved, all so I could enter into the presence and embrace of God. I know prayer and connection came at a cost - Your life.

Help me remember that when I feel alone and distant from You. Like David, I can often feel isolated and distant from You, but help me not forget that I can access You because of Your loving sacrifice. I can sleep soundly, assured of Your love for me. In Your Holy name, I pray, Amen."
