When it comes to prayer, my fervor ebbs and flows. The book of Psalms offers specific support for those moments as a language for prayer.
We are not alone in our struggles. The Lord is able and willing to revive us. He invites us to trust Him for all our needs at any time.
Our limitations do not limit God. Chronic illness challenges do not diminish His care. As a loving Good Shepherd, He offers grace.
