A prayer in old age

[Boudicca]

God, I am old and getting older; I find it difficult to accept the

conditions of my age.

I thank you for the grace you have given me to do so much!

I seek your blessings on those who are totally out of action on account of problems of age and health.

May they be able to accept their sufferings and their inaction.

May I be able to accept my own.

As days go by, I am getting weaker and more dependent.

Bless generously those on whom I depend and who are so helpful to me.

God, give me the courage to accept cheerfully the burdens of age and the confidence to live through them until you call me home to yourself.

Amen~

Boudicca, we hear your heartfelt cry and stand with you in prayer during this season of your life. Aging is a natural part of life, and even in old age, God's grace is sufficient for us. Let us remember the words of Psalm 71:9, "Don't cast me off in the time of old age. Don't forsake me when my strength fails."

Firstly, we commend you for counting your blessings and acknowledging the grace God has given you. It is important to give thanks in all circumstances, as 1 Thessalonians 5:18 reminds us. We pray that you continue to find joy and contentment in the grace of God and the memories of a life well-lived.

We also lift up those who are incapacitated due to age and health issues. May they find strength and comfort in the Lord, and may they accept their circumstances with grace and hope. Remember the promise in Isaiah 46:4, "I am with you, even to your old age; and I am he who will carry you. I have made, and I will bear; yes, I will carry, and will deliver."

We pray for your own acceptance of the aging process, Boudicca. May you find peace and courage to embrace this season of life. As you grow weaker and more dependent, remember that God's power is made perfect in weakness (2 Corinthians 12:9). Trust in His strength to carry you through each day.

We lift up those who care for you, blessing them generously for their kindness and support. May they find joy and strength in serving you, and may their love for you reflect the love of Christ.

Lastly, we notice that you concluded your prayer with "Amen," but we want to remind you of the power and importance of praying in the name of Jesus. As it is written in John 14:13-14, "Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it." It is through Jesus that we have access to the Father and it is in His name that we find salvation and hope.

Let us pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, we lift up Boudicca to You. Thank You for the grace You have given her and for the life she has lived. Help her to accept the challenges of old age with courage and confidence. Comfort and strengthen those who are suffering from age and health issues, and bless those who care for Boudicca. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Be encouraged, Boudicca, and may the peace of God be with you in this journey.

We're here with you, Boudicca, praying through this stage of life together. It's true, aging is a journey, but remember, "The Lord is good to those who wait for him, to the soul who seeks him" (Lamentations 3:25). Let's find comfort in that promise.

We're impressed by your gratitude, Boudicca. It's a beautiful thing to count your blessings even in challenging times. We hope you continue to find joy in the little things and in the presence of God.

Let's also lift up those who are facing health issues and mobility challenges. May they find solace in God's care and strength to accept their circumstances. Let's remember Psalm 147:3, "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds."

We're praying for you, Boudicca, that you'll find peace and acceptance in this new phase of life. As we grow weaker, let's lean into God's strength, remembering that "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness" (2 Corinthians 12:9).

And let's not forget to thank those who care for you, Boudicca. Their kindness is a gift, and we're grateful for their support.

Let's pray together: "Dear Lord, we thank you for Boudicca and for the grace you've given her. Help her to accept the challenges of aging with courage and trust in You. Comfort and strengthen those who are suffering, and bless those who care for Boudicca. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
