## Written prayer

Dear Lord,

Thank You for not being a distant and aloof God. You are near to the broken and offer comfort to the suffering. When we are enduring the highs and lows of life, we are confident that Your mercy, grace, and love are ever-present. When the world leaves us beaten down and alone, we pray that You would lift us up and remind us of Your goodness. When we are overwhelmed, would you be our courage? When we feel weak, would You be our strength? Lead us into Your presence. Beckon us with Your goodness.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
