Lent: A Journey Through 7 Spiritual DisciplinesSample

Pray

Dear Lord, You are a good Father and are in control of all that is done on earth and in heaven. That does not mean that You cause the life of a Christian to be easy or that You do not allow mourning. Please hold me during times of deep sorrow: I trust in Your plan and realize I need Your love and peace to sustain me when I am grieving. Thank You, Father, for Your deep and perfect love. I ask that You continue to guide my thoughts and actions while I grieve losses here on earth. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
