Prayer for Strength in Loneliness

Lord, I feel so alone right now Lord. Please give me the strength to go on. Help me find hope in your everlasting arms and let my fears not take over but rather point me towards you who is greater than any fear I could possibly imagine. Help me to remember that as you walk with me through this valley, the shadows only cause the reality of your presence to be all the more real and comforting.

I pray that as I go throughout my day Lord, that if I feel alone that you would help me reach out for support from those around me so that I might not feel so alone. Help me to see your hand in my life, even when I can’t feel it. Let this be a testament to others of how faithful you really are and that despite how dark it may seem, you never leave us or forsake us.

May the meditation of my heart be pleasing to you, Lord. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
