SUMMARY SENTENCE
God is there for you when you're facing tough times.
PRAYER
Merciful God, you promise to stay close and to look out for me. Yet, sometimes I can't feel it. Everything seems so overwhelming. Calm me so that I can trust you to take care of things. I know that you're really here. Amen.
THE LORD’S PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your Name; your Kingdom come; your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and forever. Amen.
