“How frail is humanity! How short is life, how full of trouble!” (Job 14:1; NLT).
“Can the dead live again? If so, this would give me hope through all my years of struggle, and I would eagerly await the release of death” (Job 14:14; NLT).
Now may the Lord of peace himself give you his peace at all times and in every situation (2 Thessalonians 3:16; NLT).
Lord,
My life has been
One long struggle,
Full of sin,
Suffering,
Sickness,
And sorrow.
Please forgive,
Heal,
Strengthen,
And comfort me.
Give me your peace,
And help me to keep going,
Until you call me home
At last.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen.
