Please help me to point my family to you, even though I feel so lost and confused. I’ve been laid off from work, and if I can’t make money, how will we pay our bills? How will I feed my family? I’m usually the strong one, but even I feel anxiety now. But right now I feel like everything is being taken from me.
#Prayer for someone sick how to#
Show me how to make the most of this time and disciple my children with a new urgency. Help us to not grow weary of one another while we’re home together for who knows how long. Keep me focused on you, so that I can fill my children with encouragement and not panic. Help me to rest at night, so that I have energy and clarity of mind. Please allow me to stay healthy so that I can take care of them. Please keep my children safe from this virus. I fear how others will act during this time of uncertainty, how long this will last, and not knowing what the world will look like for my children when this is over. Please take this feeling from me and give me courage, strength, and an unwavering trust in You. I could call a friend, but I’m afraid they won’t understand. Social distancing has left me feeling more alone than ever.
#Prayer for someone sick skin#
Excessive hand-washing has left my skin raw. My dreams at night are as stressful as my thoughts during the day. My stomach is tied up in knots, my thoughts are skipping so fast I can’t keep up. I don’t even have words for what I’m feeling. Remind me that while I don’t know what my future holds, I know who holds my future. Help me to glorify you with my attitude even in this trial. Help me to praise you, even in this storm. Give me the self-discipline to rest and take care of my body while I’m recovering. I pray I don’t end up in the hospital and I pray that I didn’t spread this to other people. You are the Great Physician, and so I pray for healing. I don’t know how bad my symptoms will get, and I hate knowing I might have infected other people before I knew I was sick.

I trust you, but I confess I’m afraid of the unknown. I never imagined that I would get this virus. I want to know you’re real and I want to know the comfort that you give to your people. Would you help me to believe? If you’re real, would you open my eyes and heart to you? Would you give me faith to believe in you and trust you? While I’m stuck at home, would you please guide me to online sources where I can learn more about you. If I knew that you were real, I would want to trust in you. Are you really there? Can you really hear me? I know people who claim to know you and they don’t seem as afraid as I do. I know I’m not the only one feeling lonely, give me the courage to reach out and offer encouragement to others.Ģ.

Please help me to have concern for others above myself. I know I could pick up the phone and call someone, but I don’t want to be a burden. Remind me that I can trust you with whatever may come. Remind me that, as your child, you have not given me a spirit of fear. I could never have imagined facing something like this on my own and I’m afraid.

Let’s take each other’s burdens before the throne of God!įor all of us affected by COVID-19, “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.” ( Romans 15:13) 1. Please let these prayers be a reminder of what others are going through during this time. Use these prayers as a guide to pray for yourself, but don’t forget that being others-focused is a constant theme throughout scripture, and should be a constant theme in the lives of all Christ-followers.
