Ever-present God,
When I am weary and overwhelmed, surround me with your love.
When I am frustrated and irritated, calm me and help me step back.
When I forget your call to love my neighbor, my friend, my roommate, my family member,
help me to remember your unending love for me and for them.
When life is too much, help me to rest and begin again.
When I feel unequal to the demands of the day, help me to find the support and resources I need.
When I need to vent or rage or cry, help me find a place to do just that.
When I feel mistreated and alone, help me to know how very precious and loved I am.
Amen.
