Heavenly Father, In the heaviness I carry, draw near to me. When sadness clouds my thoughts and hope feels far away, remind me that I am never beyond Your loving presence. Give me strength for this day, peace when my mind is troubled, and courage to accept the help and companionship You place along my path. Lord Jesus, You know suffering and sorrow. Stay beside me in the darkness and lead me gently toward Your light. Through the intercession of St. Dymphna, bring comfort to my heart and renew within me the gift of hope. Amen. (NOTE: This prayer is not intended to be nor a substitute for professional counseling. We pray that you or your loved one may continue on the path to mental health and recovery. In Jesus’ name, Amen.)
