Heavy News, Heavy Heart ❤️

God holds you in the hard stuff! ✨

Scripture For Today: "Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you."

1 Peter 5:7

You turned on the news and wish you hadn't.

The world feels scary and you wonder how to protect your family.

Your heart hurts for people you've never met.

Maybe you worry about what kind of world your kids will grow up in.

You feel small and helpless when everything seems broken.

We know that heavy feeling when the world feels too much.

Saint Alexius left his rich family to live as a poor man.

He saw the pain around him and chose to pray for everyone who was hurting.

God sees your tender heart.

Your prayers matter more than you know.

Today's Prayer: When The World Feels Heavy

Jesus, the news is hard to hear today,

I don't know what to do or say.

My heart feels heavy with all the pain,

I wonder if things will be the same.

Help me trust You're still in charge,

Even when the problems feel so large.

Use my prayers to bring some light,

To those who need You in their night.

I give You all my fears today,

Show me how to trust and pray.

Amen.

God is bigger than what scares you.

Your heart matters to Him.
