Prayers for Life

Gentle Jesus, I know that you welcome all our prayers, so I share with you my prayer about my fear of the dentist.

God who hears our cries, can there be any deeper longing than the longing for a child? Trusting in your kindness, I offer you this prayer for infertility.

I come before you asking for strength for the day. Entreating you, my God, to empower my spirit. Fill me with your strength.

My prayer today is for my miscarriage. It is hard to know where to begin, God. What words to say, what questions to ask.

Today, I come to you with a prayer for a marriage proposal. My excitement is so exuberant; my joy could break forth like a song.

I offer You this prayer for happiness. I imagine that the joy and contentment You offer us is a holy river flowing through our lives.

God who hears us, today I bring you the prayer that weighs on my heart, a prayer for the deceased. I know that we must all part from the ones we love, but I find peace in recalling that they are enveloped in Your mercy.

God, You know what I need even before I ask. As I search for a new home to purchase, be with me and guide me.

Welcoming the Holy Spirit, I open my heart and offer You my prayer for help amidst social pressure.

Jesus, as I feel the kindness of Your gaze upon me, I offer to You my prayer for healing for others.
