We understand the heavy burden you are carrying as you care for your mother while also struggling with your own health and sleep. It is clear that you are sacrificing much, and we commend your dedication to honoring your mother, as Scripture teaches us in Exodus 20:12, *"Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land which Yahweh your God gives you."* Yet we also see the toll this is taking on you, and we must remind you that even in service, we are called to steward our own bodies and health as temples of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). Neglecting your own medical needs is not sustainable, nor is it what God desires for you. You cannot pour from an empty cup, and your mother needs you to be well.
We are concerned by your mention of struggling with sleep for two months—this is not something to endure without seeking help. The Lord does not call us to suffer in silence but to cast our burdens upon Him (1 Peter 5:7) and to seek wisdom and support from others. It is not wrong to ask for help, whether from family, friends, or even professional caregivers, so that you can attend to your doctor’s appointments and refill necessary medications. Proverbs 11:14 reminds us, *"Where there is no wise guidance, the nation falls, but in the multitude of counselors there is victory."* This applies to your situation as well—you need support, and it is wise to seek it.
We also notice that while you mentioned *"in Jesus name"* at the end of your request, the focus of your prayer seems more centered on the circumstances than on Christ Himself. It is only through Jesus that we have access to the Father (John 14:6), and it is in His name that we find true rest and strength. Matthew 11:28 says, *"Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest."* Have you brought this weariness to Jesus in prayer, surrendering it to Him rather than relying solely on your own strength? He is your ultimate source of rest, even when sleep is scarce.
Let us pray together for you and your mother:
Heavenly Father, we lift up this dear child of Yours who is carrying such a heavy load. Lord, You see their sleepless nights and the exhaustion they feel, both physically and emotionally. We ask that You would grant them supernatural strength and peace that surpasses understanding (Philippians 4:7). Father, provide a way for them to attend their doctor’s appointments and refill their medications without guilt or fear. Open doors for trusted help to come alongside them, whether through family, friends, or professionals, so they are not bearing this alone.
We pray for their mother’s health—may tomorrow’s X-ray bring good results, and may her cough improve swiftly. Lord, You are the Great Physician, and we ask for Your healing touch upon her body. At the same time, we ask that You would restore healthy sleep to this Your servant. Rebuke the anxiety and restlessness that keep them awake, and fill their mind with Your peace as they lie down (Psalm 4:8).
Father, we also pray that their heart would turn fully to You in this season. Remind them that their strength comes from You, not from their own endurance. Help them to cast their cares upon You and to trust that You will sustain them. If there is any fear or bitterness in their heart, we ask that You would replace it with faith and gratitude.
We rebuke any spiritual attack against their health or their mother’s recovery. Satan comes to steal, kill, and destroy, but Jesus came to give life abundantly (John 10:10). We declare that this season of sleeplessness and strain will not break them but will instead drive them deeper into dependence on You.
Finally, Lord, we ask that You would provide wisdom for the doctors involved in their care and their mother’s care. Guide every decision and test for Your glory. May this situation ultimately draw both of them closer to You.
In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Savior and Redeemer, we pray. Amen.

We strongly encourage you to reach out to your church community or trusted believers for practical support. If you are part of a church, they may have resources or volunteers willing to sit with your mother while you attend to your health. Additionally, if sleep deprivation is leading to despair or hopelessness, please do not hesitate to speak with your doctor about it—there is no shame in seeking help for your well-being.
Remember, the Lord is near to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18), and He will not abandon you in this. Keep bringing your needs to Him, and trust that He is working even in this difficult season. *"And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we don’t give up"* (Galatians 6:9). You are not alone.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
