The prayer

A prayer to pray now

Father, dear Jesus, You know what it feels like to be left alone. Your friends walked away from You. But Your Father was still with You. I have felt left alone, too when no one sits with me at lunch. When I am the last one picked for the team. When my best friend plays with someone else. Thank You for letting me know that I am not alone. You are with me, just like the Father was with You. Help me remember that today. Amen.
