Heavenly Father,
I come to You today with a heavy heart as I am struggling with sickness. I know that You are the source of all healing and I trust in Your power to restore my body to health.
I ask that You would give me the strength and courage to endure this trial, and that You would be with me every step of the way. Please bring peace and comfort to my mind and heart, and help me to find hope and joy in Your presence.
I pray for all those who are also struggling with illness, that You would bring healing and relief to their bodies and minds. I ask that You would use this experience to draw me closer to You and to help me grow in faith and trust.
I thank You, Lord, for Your faithfulness and Your loving kindness. I pray that through this experience, I may glorify Your name and share the hope and healing that can only be found in You.
I pray all of these things in the powerful name of Jesus, my Savior and Lord. Amen.
