Prayer

Dear God, can I really tell you what I’m feeling? Can I beat my chest, pound my fists, stamp my feet, and scream at you, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”

I’m really hurting. I’m grieving great losses. And at times, I’m really angry with you, God. Often, I do not even know how to express my deep sadness and grief. When I am overcome with grief, how do I begin to mourn? When I am afraid that if I start to cry, I may never stop crying and when I do not know how to grieve… may you intercede on my behalf.

In your caring name. Amen.
