Prayer
Lord, help me today not to add to anybody's burden. Help me to bring encouragement to others. Where I can, enable me to comfort. And when I don't know, help me to admit it. When I feel sorrow and sympathy for someone, help me to say that. Help me to lift the load of the hurting, not to add to their burden. If others are going through an agonizing experience, they need us to be supportive and strong.
In Jesus name, Amen.
