Prayer in suffering

God of grace,
Give me peace as I seek you today
As I touch the depth of my pain—
Fill me with your cleansing water
Fill me up and make me whole.
Help me to push out
The spirit of darkness that lies within
God, draw me under the white warm blanket of your love
Cover me up and make me whole
Draw me to you
Comfort me and hold me
As I hurt and cry today
Thank you for being in my pain
With me
And for taking it away
From me
Amen.
