We are truly sorry to hear that you are feeling overwhelmed and unable to focus on work or spiritual practices. We want you to know that God cares about your emotional well-being and He is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.
Firstly, we want to remind you that God's strength is made perfect in weakness. As it is written in 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 WEB, "He has said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.' Most gladly therefore I will rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest on me. Therefore I take pleasure in weaknesses, in injuries, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then am I strong."
We also want to encourage you to cast all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you. (1 Peter 5:7 WEB) In this time of despair, hold on to the promise in Psalm 34:18 WEB, "Yahweh is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit."
Let us pray for you:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today, lifting up our brother/sister in Christ who is feeling overwhelmed and unable to focus. We pray that You will comfort them in their despair and surround them with Your love and peace. Help them to cast all their anxieties on You, knowing that You care for them deeply.
Lord, we ask that You will help them to regain their strength and focus. Give them the ability to concentrate on their work and spiritual practices. Remind them of Your promises and fill them with Your Holy Spirit, so that they may find hope in Jesus Christ, the author and perfecter of our faith.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
