God who keeps me
Today feels like the dark before dawn. I don't understand why this had to happen. I just know I am tired from carrying the weight.
Steady my heart. Loosen my grip on needing to make sense. Remind me that even in this darkness, You are not absent.
I keep wanting to fix what is broken, to rush past the pain to the resurrection. But today, I sit with the cross. I let the sorrow be real.
In Jesus' name we pray. Amen.
