A prayer when things are difficult

Dear God, my life feels very dark and difficult now.

I see  the candle.
But I'm not in the light. 
No matter where I look, there are shadows and problems.  

I don't know how to fix things.   I'm scared there is no way to make things ok again.

God, I know you love me even when I'm in the dark.   

Help my heart to feel your love.
Help my body to feel your warmth.
Help my mind to see your light, and do what is right.



Give me strength to get through this darkness today.
