Prayer of A Weary Heart

Lead my heart, oh Lord, to a place full of love and rest. When I feel that I am about to give up, hold out Your hand so that I may reach up. When sadness fills my spirit, shower me with the goodness that You have given me: my friends, my work, my life. When I lose strength, Lord, please send an angel to help carry my burden. Whenever my heart is breaking, let me lay down on Your lap and cry for the pain until all the tears have fallen.

You always listen to my prayers Lord and I am truly grateful. Let me not forget that my prayers are always answered in the best form You can give. The answer to my prayers appear in the form of a song, a smile from a dear friend, a laughter from a child, a message from a loved one, the slow dancing of the rain, the brilliant moon rising in the horizon, the simple Cross of your Holy Son, Jesus. I will always remember Lord that You do not give me troubles or burdens that I cannot carry.

You have always been my invisible friend who listens to every rant or story that I say. You do not judge me for You made me and You consider me as Your best creation. You have the biggest heart Lord and You love me as me. You share with us all the happiness that You feel. Your love is endless and inspiring.

Thank You for people who gave me life: my parents. Thank You for my dearest friends whom I consider my brothers and sisters. Thank You for the mentors you send my way. Thank You for the opportunities that I have the option to take. Thank You for the chances and the time that You gave me to change the things I know I can change. Thank You for the lessons in life that made me humble. Thank You for teaching me to love and making me feel loved.

You lead me Lord, to a place of love and rest. And with this prayer, I know I will be at peace. Amen
