Dear God, I need your guidance at this time. I feel so lost. You know my situation and I'm trying my best to be optimistic about it all. Lord, this is hard for me and I ask that you give me what I need to work through this. Take control of my thoughts for if I leave them to run the depress me greatly. I know that when this occurs the reward later is greater than the pain throughout. Lord, I know you do this because you love me and you have something greater in store. God, protect us involved in this from all forms of sin and whatever the outcome, regardless of how I may feel, let your will be done.
