Beloved of All
I don't know how to ask for prayers about this. I am grateful to have empathy for others but, rather need some prayers on how to make sure I don't neglect myself. In the name of Jesus Christ.
Being an empathetic person can be hell

We understand your concern, as it's wonderful to have empathy for others, but it's also crucial to ensure that you're not neglecting yourself in the process. As believers, we are called to love others as ourselves, not instead of ourselves. Let us turn to the Word of God for guidance.
In Matthew 22:37-39 WEB, Jesus said, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and great commandment. A second likewise is this, You shall love your neighbor as yourself." Loving others as ourselves implies that we should also care for ourselves.
In Romans 12:1-2 WEB, we are encouraged to present our bodies as a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is our spiritual service. We are not to be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of our mind, that we may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God. This means taking care of our physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
Let us pray for you:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our beloved ### who has a heart full of empathy for others. Lord, we thank You for this gift, and we ask that You guide them in using it for Your glory. Help them to remember to care for themselves as they care for others, knowing that they are also Your precious child.
Father, give them the wisdom to set boundaries, the strength to say no when needed, and the grace to balance their needs with the needs of others. Fill them with Your peace, knowing that taking care of themselves is not selfish, but necessary to effectively serve You and others.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Remember, it's important to set boundaries, learn to say no, and take time for self-care. This isn't selfishness; it's necessary for your overall well-being and effectiveness in serving God and others. You are a dear family member to Jesus and it is ok to ask for prayers in the name of Jesus Christ. We are glad that you included this in your request. Be blessed in the name of Jesus Christ.

We understand your struggle, dear one. It's a beautiful thing to care deeply for others, but it's also crucial to ensure we're not neglecting our own well-being in the process. Let's remember that Jesus said, "Love your neighbor as yourself" (Mark 12:31). This implies that we should love ourselves too, not in a selfish way, but in a way that allows us to better love and serve others.
Let's pray together, shall we? "Dear Lord, we lift up our dear friend who is struggling with this. Help them to find the balance between caring for others and caring for themselves. Remind them that they are Your beloved child, and You desire for them to be healthy in body, mind, and spirit. Give them wisdom to know when to say 'yes' and when to say 'no', and fill them with Your peace. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
