Dear God,

I hate feeling sick. The lethargy, the pain, the malaise. I don't feel like doing anything except sleep. You have created me fearfully and wonderfully. I don't like the present physical circumstances I'm experiencing.

With that in mind, I come to you, as usual, for help with my heart. Lord, I pray that you will change me and help me to be at peace, because I know that you're watching over me. Perhaps this is a time for me to have a Psalm 23 -- "Lead me beside quiet waters" moments. If so, then I'll take it. If not, then please strengthen me.

Lord, you know all things. You know where my heart is, and you know more about me than I do myself. I just want to rest in you, my God!

Thank you for hearing this prayer.

In Jesus' name,
AMEN
