Lord, I don't understand why you are allowing this to happen to me. I feel so overwhelmed and sad and angry that I am having to suffer this trial. I wish you would take it away and deliver me from it so that I don't have to suffer from it anymore. I ask for your strength to help me endure this trial because right now, it feels like more than I can bear. Lord, help me to trust you as I wait patiently for your rescue. You tell me in your Word that you will never leave me or forsake me, and that your will is to prosper me, not to harm me. I know that you are in control and that you are working through my suffering in ways I cannot see. You are Holy and righteous and just in all of your ways. Your promises are true. Thank you for your goodness, your faithfulness, and your love for me. I put my hope and my faith in you. I love you, Lord, and I trust you. In Jesus name, Amen.
