When Your Heart Feels Shattered, Pray This
God stays close to us in our darkest moments to bring comfort and healing, as Karin Hadadan’s prayer shares. In the same way, Rebecca Simon’s Finding God Every Day offers simple ways to feel His steady support throughout the day.
When life feels overwhelming, and the way out is hard to see, we can lean on the One who promises to stay close to us. God doesn’t turn away from our pain; He meets us right in the middle of it with a peace that helps us keep going. If your heart needs a little extra comfort right now, let’s talk to Him together.
Dear God,
Today I feel weak and my heart is shattering because of everything going on in my life. I genuinely can’t see a way out of this pain. But I know you are close to the brokenhearted, so please God, reveal yourself to me during this dark time. Help me march forward, give me strength, and show me how to heal my broken heart. Mend and restore my crushed spirit in the way that only you can.

Thank you for drawing near when I feel most alone, and for your compassion as I experience these emotional wounds. I commit to seeking you especially during my darkest times, trusting that you save those who are crushed in spirit.
Amen.
