The prayer
A prayer to pray now
Father, You see the quiet sorrows I carry. The small griefs that are not big enough to tell anyone about. The things I cannot fix or get back. You see them all. You have seen them all along. I do not have to pretend they are gone. Help me let You see them again today. Then help me listen for what You said next, about sending the Comforter. He is sent for sorrows like this one. The sorrow is noticed. The Comforter is on the way. Amen.
