Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: I am Sherry Mackey at his time right now for
- 0:03Speaker 1: us to go to God in prayer, and as always
- 0:06Speaker 1: I invite you to join along with me in prayer.
- 0:10Speaker 1: You know, sometimes we go through things in life where
- 0:14Speaker 1: we can't even verbalize what we need from God, where
- 0:17Speaker 1: the hurt is so deep, or the pain hurts so bad,
- 0:21Speaker 1: is so sharp, or we're just so spent that we
- 0:26Speaker 1: don't have the words to verbalize what we need, and
- 0:28Speaker 1: all we can do is just say, Lord, Help Lord,
- 0:31Speaker 1: you know, Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus Christ,
- 0:36Speaker 1: we come before you right now, not with polished words, God,
- 0:40Speaker 1: not with long explanations, but with heavy hearts and open hands. Lord.
- 0:45Speaker 1: You know you know the things we can't verbalize. You
- 0:49Speaker 1: know the burdens we don't know how to name. You
- 0:52Speaker 1: know the pain that sits so deep that it steals
- 0:55Speaker 1: our breath. God, You know the tears we cry in secret.
- 0:59Speaker 1: You know the questions we're afraid to ask. You know
- 1:02Speaker 1: the herd we've learned to hide behind the smiles and strength.
- 1:07Speaker 1: You know the weight we carry when we tell everyone
- 1:10Speaker 1: else I'm fine, but inside we're struggling just to hold on. Lord.
- 1:15Speaker 1: You know the things that feel beyond our control, the
- 1:18Speaker 1: diagnosis we didn't expect, the relationships that fall apart, the
- 1:22Speaker 1: doors that close without warning, the seasons that changed everything.
- 1:28Speaker 1: You know, the grief that lingers. You know, the fear
- 1:32Speaker 1: that whispers, and the exhaustion that comes from trying to
- 1:36Speaker 1: be strong for too long. Father, when the words fail us,
- 1:41Speaker 1: hear the cry of our hearts. When we don't know
- 1:44Speaker 1: how to pray, God intercede for us when all we
- 1:47Speaker 1: can say is, Lord, help you already understand. Help us God.
- 1:53Speaker 1: When the pain feels overwhelming. Help us God. When the
- 1:57Speaker 1: waiting feels endless. Help us God, when hope feels distance
- 2:02Speaker 1: and answers feel delayed. God, help us when our faith
- 2:06Speaker 1: feels so fragile and our strength is gone. Your word
- 2:11Speaker 1: says that you are near to the broken hearted, that
- 2:14Speaker 1: you save those who are Christian spirits. So right now, God,
- 2:17Speaker 1: we lead into your nearness. Wrap us in your peace,
- 2:21Speaker 1: Cover us, God, Oh, we need you to cover us. God,
- 2:25Speaker 1: in your presence, hold us together. When we feel like God,
- 2:28Speaker 1: we're falling apart. Lord, we release to you what we
- 2:32Speaker 1: can't afford. Lord, God, to lose, we release to you
- 2:36Speaker 1: what we can't fix. We release to you what seems
- 2:39Speaker 1: out of control. Lord, we released to you what we
- 2:42Speaker 1: can't carry any longer. God, replace the hurt, the fear,
- 2:47Speaker 1: the unanswered questions of the silence, struggles in your hand,
- 2:50Speaker 1: teach us to trust you even when we don't understand.
- 2:54Speaker 1: And even in this moment, we declare that you're still good.
- 2:59Speaker 1: We declare that you still faithful. We declared that you're
- 3:02Speaker 1: still working behind the scenes and in our hearts. So today,
- 3:07Speaker 1: with tears, with faith, and with everything we have, we cry,
- 3:12Speaker 1: our Lord, you know, and Lord how we need you.
- 3:18Speaker 1: In the strong, compassionate, loving name of Jesus
