Lord, may Your remind me daily of Your presence in my life. As I face familial and relational challenges, I entrust all of these to You. I give all of my burdens, yokes, struggles, and pressures at the foot of the cross of Christ. I cannot do these things alone, Lord, but I thank You because of Your perfect grace in the form of Your Son, Jesus Christ. His perfect sacrifice on the cross on my behalf, the fact that He paid for my sins, and He chooses to love me, a flawed, wretched sinner. Despite me living a life contrary to Him, even though I was in rebellion against You, Lord, I thank You for Your perfect grace and love that gives me the confidence to live life because of what You have done. Not because of anything that I have done, Lord, it is all about You! I thank You Lord, I give You all the glory, honor, and praises, in the mighty name of Jesus, Amen!

Dear Lord, I have been struggling for so long and I have been unable to find the drive within myself to carry those crosses. I entrust you lord my biggest cross and the other crosses that come with it. I give my you own stress, anxiety, sufferings and burden. Please help me in being able to carry the cross during this life. Help me be more brave to carry it so I may accomplish more in this short life I have before I go to wherever I deserve in the afterlife. I hope you can forgive me Lord, because I have sinned so much in my life and I hope that I will do better and help others more and learn how to be stronger in carrying my cross.  Lord,  thank you for being with me, I praise you, and bless you, and in Jesus’ name, amen.

Dear Lord,

I come before you, carrying the crosses that I am given for growth. I have been struggling and have been doubting the purposes of these crosses. I feel overwhelmed by the idea that I am not enough when these crosses are too heavy. Please help me to trust in your presence and to find comfort and strength through your love.

Grant me (and fellow students) the strength to carry these crosses with utmost courage. Give us the wisdom we need to see its purpose. Grant us the patience that we need to endure these crosses. Give us the grace to choose joy over sorrow. Fill our hearts with peace and love, gently reminding us that we are to conquer our crosses altogether.

Thank you for being my refuge and the source of my strength. With you, I trust that all our crosses will be conquered, and we shall see growth after.

Amen.

Most loving and compassionate Father, I offer to You my crosses and woes. May You give me the courage and strength I need to carry them as You have done, and may You guide me through the path that will lead me to Your warm embrace. Although I am able to smile with my friends and family everyday, there is restlessness in my heart if I will be able to steadily finish my college years whilst accomplishing the goals I have set for myself.

Become my shelter oh Lord and offer me rest.

With the weakness in my heart and mind, become my pillar --be with me in sunny days and bleak nights, and in my happiest moments and anxious worries.

In Your Holy name, Amen.

Lord, I entrust to you crosses of mine, which I know cannot be overcome without your guidance. I fully entrust to you Lord my own insecurities, my relational problems in life, and my academics. I pray for help that I may overcome these crosses, and I pray for forgiveness for my seldom lack of trust and lack of time for you, Lord. Though these challenges seem tough, I believe that they serve a purpose in my life, and I pray that I may make use of it well in the future. Without a doubt, I believe that through you, Lord, nothing is impossible as all things are possible by your name.

This I pray, in Jesus name, amen.

Dear God,

The crosses I bear weigh heavy on my heart. I am regretful of past mistakes, overwhelmed by present responsibilities, and lost without a clear future.

I often struggle to see beyond the pain and difficulties they bring. But I know, Lord, that these crosses are not meant to break me. With faith in You, I choose to see them as opportunities for growth, as paths leading me closer to Your will.

I entrust to You my worries, my fears, and the struggles that sometimes seem too heavy to bear. Lord, You know the depths of my heart and the challenges I face.

Lord, grant me the grace to embrace these crosses with faith, love, and courage. Fill me with Your strength when I am weak, with Your peace when I am anxious, and with Your wisdom when I am lost. Help me to see the purpose in my pain and to trust in Your greater plan for my life. Help me respond to Your call with complete trust and compassion for others.

Guide me, Lord, as I journey through this life, carrying my cross with the hope and confidence that You are always with me. I entrust my life, my crosses, and my heart to You, trusting that all things will work for my good and Your glory.

I praise you for giving me the strength to carry these crosses. I thank you for the opportunity to carry on Your will. This I pray, in Jesus' name,

Amen.

Dear Lord,

I have been struggling lately especially ever since the school year started because I have dealt with many situations where I have no one to turn and talk to. I give my stress, my anxiety, my fears. Please help me carry this burden so that I will not be so discouraged in the future. Forgive me for my immaturity and irresponsibility on not knowing how to deal with my crosses. Please continue looking out for me throughout my struggles. Continue to guide me towards the right path. In Jesus' name, amen.

# data[].attributes.body
Lord, I share with you the challenges I am facing in my academic and professional endeavors, in that You may guide me not to the road of impatience and stress, but to a path of joy and compassion towards serving others and You. I pray that all my doubts and worries be temporary, knowing that You are here both in my moments of failure and success. I pray that through Your guidance, I am able to take a leap of faith in everything I do, without forgetting to be a person with and for others. Amen.

# data[].attributes.body
Lord, may you please guide me as I face uncertainty about my academic and career path. Please help me face the feeling of being overwhelmed, pressure, and fear of failure. Moreover, as I discover my purpose in life, may you lead me to my true calling. I then pray that you bless me with courage to face the unknown and discernment to choose a path that will bring me closer to You. Amen.

Lord, being in 3rd Year means another set of challenges to face, but also experiences to have. I pray that You grant me the wisdom to know what each of these is trying to tell me. Some things might not go the way I'd planned or wanted; nevertheless, when this happens, remind me that You have plans greater than anything within my control. Let the things I am ready for come to me, and steer me away from the things for which I have yet to be prepared. Amen.

# data[].attributes.body
Dear Lord,

I know that we are supposed to be loving persons not only to other people but to our own selves as well, but with the way I am dealing with my crosses, I'm not sure whether there's enough love there.

But please know that I am trying. Please give me the courage to accept your guidance. Knowing that there is someone loving Father that believes in me is already empowering- and I hope that with this support I may find myself ready to surrender to the sweetness of life, if only I allow myself to taste it.

I ask of you to give me the courage to live fully.

# data[].attributes.body
Dear Lord, for so long I have been struggling, unable to find the strength within myself to bear these burdens. I place my heaviest cross, along with all the others, in your hands. I give you my worries, my anxiety, my suffering, and all my burdens. Please help me find the strength to carry these crosses through this life. Lord, I seek your forgiveness for all the times I have sinned, and I pray that I may improve, help others, and grow in strength to bear my burdens. Thank you, Lord, for being by my side. Amen.

# data[].attributes.body
Lord, thank you for being good to me. My crosses are school related as I struggle with passing my tests and papers. I will do my best and will hope that I also get Your support along the way. Thank you and God bless.

# data[].attributes.body
Dear Lord, I am unsure of whether the path that i am taking is that of Your will. I am finding it challenging to hear Your voice for this particular cross that I am bearing, but I have faith in You. I do not believe that You will ever let me down, even if the events unfold in a way that I do not particularly imagine nor wish. I know that my understanding of my situation is very little compared to Yours, and so I trust Your guidance in leading me towards where You want me to be. Please bless me with more strength as I try to keep the faith and for me to be able to get through this one day at a time. Amen.

# data[].attributes.body
Dear God,

In the midst of the heavy crosses I carry right now, grant me the strength to continue to put my trust in You. Help me bear my burdens and guide me through the challenges I am facing. Grant me the strength to open myself to receiving your grace. Fill me with courage when I feel apprehensive about my future, peace when my thoughts overpower me, and wisdom when I am uncertain.

Amen.

# data[].attributes.body
Lord,

I have been faced with a lot of uncertainties recently. Being in this school means that I am always on edge with my grades and my ability to socialize. You have sent me blessings in the form of my friends that allow me to breathe, and in the form of people that find value in sharing their happiness with me.

Please allow me to keep this peace and to cultivate it into the strength that I need to let myself grow and go through these challenges. I pray that you allow me to find myself and my purpose even through these hurdles.

Amen

# data[].attributes.body
Lord, thank you for the many blessings and good things you have done for me, and for those close to me. I understand that the crosses I carry now will be a worthwhile endeavor in the end, as is your will. Still, some days, it can be difficult to remember this, and there is that struggle to remain hopeful in better times. I pray, above all else, that You may grant me the clarity of mind and strength of will so that I may remember right from wrong, and have the strength within to actually act out the right deed. Amen.

# data[].attributes.body
Dear Lord,

Thank you for always being a comforting presence in my life, especially when I'm faced with challenges.

Please give me the strength to keep persevering in bearing the crosses I face each day, no matter how small they are, and that I will never fall into the temptation of giving up. Oftentimes I have trouble fixing my mindset to be one of determination and drive to perform my responsibilities. I know that I can't do this alone, and I seek encouragement and motivation from you.

I pray for your continued guidance in everything I do in the future.

In Jesus's name, Amen.

Dear Lord,

Life has gone through tremendous changes and I offer to you my being.  Despite the challenges and pressures I may have encountered, I believe in your guidance and presence that will allow me to be wise as I move forward. I believe that everything happens for a reason and under you will. As your follower, it is my responsibility to fulfill your gift of life in your accordance. Your crosses are my crosses, thus will do my best to live in the image of you.

Dear Lord,

I see in this world its beauty and its ability to be something amazing. Yet I also find things I struggle to conceive; things that bring me anger, jealousy, an experience which changes me. I hope to be able to entrust my life to this destiny that You believe in. Whilst each cross is none the same in its weight, I hope to receive the compassion to see each one as valid. In a world such as this one, I want to be graceful in goodness, for my sake, and the sake of others who can find peace in recognizing how the struggles of their crosses might be shared amongst the people You find beautiful.

# data[].attributes.body
Heavenly Father,

We come to you to give us the strength as we carry our crosses. Help us as we gather the wisdom in navigating through the struggles that we encounter. I know that there were moments where we could have taken things for granted and forgot your loving presence, and we ask for your forgiveness.

I know that I have not been strong lately, wherein my worries and failure would bombard my thoughts, with this I pray that you may give me the courage to fight through these battles and not give in to such temptation. I believe that you would never give us something that we cannot handle, thus help us to learn to trust you whole heartedly. Amen.

# data[].attributes.body
Lord, thank you for blessing me in more ways than I can even begin to understand. Truly I have received more than enough to be grateful and wholly devoted to You. But my heart is fragile, and my mind even more so. No matter how happy I should be, I just am not, and every unfortunate/ upsetting event only seems to drive me further away from You. Please bless me with a heart that can experience happiness as it once did again, and a clearer head that is not burdened with problems that I have no control over. Please bless me with the ability to face You as I should be, and embrace and overcome my mind and gain control over my heart.

Time and time again, life has shown me that you cannot accomplish anything with a fearful heart. And so, I pray for a daily ounce of courage.

Dear Lord,

I have struggled to be a little less hard on myself. In times, I find myself struggling to keep my smile. I entrust you this struggle as you lead me to finding peace again in life. As days go by, I hope you'd keep me from being consumed by the endless strings of thoughts that plague my mind and please heal my heart and give me the strength to live out your will.

Dear Lord,

Some crosses that I am carrying is the academic and social pressure in college. Holding high positions in my student organization, I often have difficulties in balancing my leisure and work life leading me to feeling less peace. I need your wisdom, strength, and guidance for me to be able to sustain myself until the end of the schoolyear. I need you by my side for strength.

Thank you Lord, Amen.

Dear Lord,

As a semester begins, I worry about the uncertainties of life. I worry about whether I will be able to fulfill my goals and live out a meaningful semester. I know that there is no life without its challenges. With this, I humbly lift these challenges up to you and ask for your guidance as I take the necessary steps to tackle each one. More than that, I offer to you my efforts to seek out a meaningful life, working towards more than just material goals. In my journey to seek out fulfillment in life by helping others maximize their potential, I hope to offer not only my struggles, but my triumphs as well.

Amen.

Dear Lord,

I stand before you to pour the anguish, sorrow, fear, and anger that dwells in my heart. I reveal all of my fears, resentments, regrets, and insecurities before you with the hopes of releasing myself from the chains of it. Lord, I entrust you with my life and I apologize for everytime that I doubt your grace. Let your will be done, oh Lord.

I ask for your guidance for leading a lost and vulnerable child like me. Protect me from evil, especially from those that are a product of my mind. Protect me, especially if I can't even protect myself from me. Lord I know you have planned a good life for me, for my friends, and for my family. Allow me and guide me to be patient as everything is revealed to me, one by one and allow trust and love to fill my hearts and minds.

All these ask through you Lord, and in the name of Jesus Christ,

Amen.

Lord,

my life has been filled with so many crosses -

Past friendships, tense relationships with parents.

The anxieties in my life, to burden parents, disappoint peers, failing to submit what is needed for requirements, plagues my life continuously.

Please help me overcome these.

# data[].attributes.body
Dear Lord,

I'm lost, confused, and frustrated with my life's current vision and direction. After all the struggles and challenges I've been through since the start of the semester, I pray, Lord, that you brighten and light up my path once again so I can see clearly what life has in store for me. I have so much passions and dreams, and I don't know where to start after what has happened, so I always pray for clarity and guidance.

Now, I dedicate my life and the crosses I've carried all along, as I know that you have a plan that is so much better than mine. I entrust my whole life to you, Lord, as I have limits that only you can fulfill. When life gets tiring, I hope that you will always allow me to see the positivity in it. May the start of my 20s be full of joy, happiness, peace, and fulfillment. May you take away all the fear and disappointment in my heart Lord, and may this school year be a comeback year and a great school year of balance between my academics, dreams and pleasure.

I end my prayer by saying how my life verse has proved me once again, "The Pain that you've been feeling, can't compare to the joy that's coming." (Romans 8:18)

I lay myself to you once again Lord, may your will be done and may you always be by my side, Lord, Thank you for everything <3

Amen

I ask for your guidance as I navigate this point of my life as a student where I am faced with making important decisions that greatly impact my future. I pray that you enlighten me so that I may be able to follow the path you have created for me. I ask that you guide me through every decision I make, every exam I take, and every class I attend so that I may be able to give my all at all times. I also ask that you help me carry the cross of feeling lost on what I want for myself and always feeling demotivated to do the things I have planned for myself and for my future.

Amen

Lord,

Aid me in giving myself grace, and in reminding myself that greatness comes from what I do with the hand I am dealt, rather than having to be the absolute best all the time. Please give me the strength to show up everyday -- and to show up with my best, while staying in good health all the way through.

Dear Lord,

A cross I am carrying is being too hard on myself. It's so difficult to not put so much pressure on myself because everything I do is for my loved ones. I want to feel like I am enough.

Please bless me with your grace to learn how to be kinder to myself. To be more forgiving of my own mistakes. I hope You can share this burden with me and give me the reassurance that I need to get through this.

Lord, thank you for all the blessings you have given me. Please continue to guide me on my journey despite my current hardships. School has been the biggest cross I have been carrying and I stand before you asking for the push I need to keep going.

Thank you for continuing to be there for me throughout all my hardships. Please continue to grant more blessings. Amen

Dear Lord,

I still find myself far from where I want to be. There is a restlessness that echoes inside me that I struggle with, I always feel so pressured and so anxious to be competent and composed. I find it more difficult each day as I continue to get overwhelmed and doubt my capabilities. While I always try to keep a positive outlook to find more opportunities to grow, it's starting to take its mental toll on me.

I ask once again for guidance in these moments of darkness and doubt. Please bless me with the perseverance to keep fighting not only for myself but for the people I love. I believe that you are here, always watching me and everything I need to get through is already here, I just need to fight it within.

Amen.

Lord, I come before You, weighed down by the many burdens I carry both in my studies and in the challenges of my personal life. I feel overwhelmed by the pressures of my social life, the uncertainty of my future after college, and the constant struggle to keep it all together. There are times when I feel very alone and helpless. Please grant me the strength to manage these crosses with wisdom and patience, and the courage to face each day with a heart full of hope. I ask for Your grace to help me trust in Your plan, even when the path seems unclear and daunting. Fill me with the peace I need to move forward, knowing that You are always with me. In Your mercy, lift me up and help me embrace each cross with faith and resilience.
