Lord, in Jesus your Son you have
born the burdens of people and comforted the sorrowful. I bring to you today
the persons in my life who have saddened hearts: _____, _____, and _____. Help
me to mediate your strengthening sympathy to them. I ask you to grant that my
companionship with you may continually refresh me so that the burdens of the
world may not crush me. You are the one who bears the burdens that I cannot.
You are their redeemer in a way I could never hope or desire to be. Only the
Father of our Lord Jesus Christ can carry in your strong heart the woes of this
world. In this faith, teach me to do my duty today, as I see it be your will,
and save me from the depression of those who try to carry more than you have
made people to bear. I look to you for help, O Lord. O Lamb of God, you are the
one who bears the sins and burdens of this world. Amen.
