She has lost all faith. She had a very tough life - sexual
assaults as a child, eating disorder, many many medical issues, and lately,
lost a boyfriend of 10 years, her car and the ability to drive, and has
attempted suicide several times. She feels so alone. I feel anything I say will
be totally inadequate. She feels the Lord has not kept his promise to her.
I'm asking for prayers to lift her up, in whatever way the
Lord knows is best for her.
I do know that in my own troubled past, in my 17 active
alcoholic years, many times I thought he had abandoned me. But over the years,
I've come to realize that we, I, think in our own terms, the here and now. And
he works in his own time, for final happiness. We can't always see a purpose in
things.
At this moment, I have no clue how to help this woman.
Perhaps our joined prayers will help provide an answer. I fear that anything I
say to her might be the wrong thing. So for now, I'll simply say a simple
prayer.
Father, you know who I am worried about. Please shower her
with whatever she needs to keep stable and to survive this turmoil she is
enduring. I do not even know what to ask for, but I know you know what's best
for her! Please send that help? We trust in you.
