Dear Jesus, I’m weighed down by my mental health challenges. Yes, I’m aware that things are not right in my head, but I still seek You… I want to remember that You promise that each person is valuable in Your sight and that healing comes from You. Thank You for reminding me that through Your Son’s sacrifice I can have hope in this difficult situation.1
Lord, help me to trust that I am not alone in my journey. I know that You are patient and do not wish for anyone to perish but to come to the knowledge of the truth.2 Please grant me the hope and patience needed to navigate my challenges, helping me to cling to the hope that You offer.3 Hold me close as I face the pressures brought on by my mental health struggles.
I remember that salvation is found in no one else but Jesus, who declared, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.”4 Give me the strength to seek You every day. Help me to believe that Your face shines upon me. I know that You desire me to grow and thrive, regardless of my current circumstances. Help me to appreciate the beauty and perfect law that You provide, as it revives my soul and offers wisdom to the simple.5 May I find insight and clarity through Your Word.6
When feelings of inadequacy or despair arise, remind me that every person has worth and purpose in Your grand design. Lord, I also pray for those who may not understand my situation.7 Help them to see me as You see me—worthy of love and compassion. I pray that I may not be defined by my struggles but rather by Your love and the grace that sustains me.8
Thank You for hearing my heart and for holding me in Your embrace. I trust in Your plans for my life, knowing that they are for my welfare and hope.9 In Jesus’ name, I pray.
