We're right there with you, friend. It's tough seeing someone we care about going through a rough patch, especially when it feels like we're powerless to change things. But remember, even when we can't see it, God is always in control. Let's keep lifting your friend up in prayer, asking God to comfort them, guide them, and give them strength to face each day. Let's also pray for wisdom for ourselves, that we might know how best to support and encourage them in this time.
In times like these, it's easy to forget that God has a plan, even when we can't see it. Let's remind ourselves of Psalm 37:7, "Rest in the Lord and wait patiently for him; do not fret because of those who prosper in their ways, because of the schemer." Let's trust that God is working things out for our friend's good, even if it doesn't look like it right now.
And hey, let's not forget to take care of ourselves too. It's hard to pour from an empty cup, so let's make sure we're staying strong and trusting in God's love for us as well.
We're in this together, and we're here for you. Let's keep praying, keep trusting, and keep loving our friend, knowing that God is always with us, no matter what. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
