Prayers for the Weary Soul
Scripture Foundation
In Psalm 34:17, we read, "The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles." As we begin our prayer time, let's focus on bringing our troubles to God and trusting in His deliverance.
In Matthew 11:28, Jesus invites us to "come to him, all you who are weary and burdened, and he will give you rest." Let's take a moment to come to Him, acknowledging our weariness and asking for His rest.
