“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” -Psalm 34:18
Good morning, family. Today is 988 Day, a day to bring awareness to su***de prevention and remind people that there is hope, there is help, and your life has value.
Father, this morning we pray especially for the person who is tired of pretending they're okay. For the one fighting battles nobody knows about, feeling overwhelmed, hopeless, alone, or wondering if life is worth continuing—Lord, surround them with Your love and place caring people in their path. Give us compassionate hearts to check on one another, listen without judgment, and take someone's pain seriously. Remind us that prayer and professional help can walk hand in hand, and asking for help is not a failure of faith. Lord, let somebody reading this know: Your story is not over. You matter. You are loved. Please stay. 💚 In Jesus' name, Amen.
💚 CHECK ON YOUR PEOPLE TODAY. A phone call, text, hug, prayer, or listening ear could mean more than you know.
If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, call or text 988 to reach the 988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline. You do not have to face a crisis alone.
