Dear Lord,
You know Dave so much better than I do. You know his sickness and the burden he carries. You also know his heart. Lord, I ask you to be with Dave now as you work in his life. Lord, let your will be done in his life. Lord, we pray for Dave just as your Word tells us to pray, for healing. I believe you hear this earnest prayer from our heart and that it is powerful because of your promise. I have faith in you, Lord, to heal Dave, but I also trust in the plan you have for his life.
Lord, I don't always understand your ways. I don't know why Dave has to suffer, but I trust you. I ask that you look with mercy and grace toward Dave. Nourish his spirit and soul in this time of suffering and comfort him with your presence. Let Dave know you are there with him through this difficulty. Give him strength. And may you, through this difficulty, be glorified in his life and also his family.
Amen.
