Preacher,
how do you pray
when your heart is hurting,
and the pain feels too big to hold?

When words get stuck,
and your voice is quiet,
how do you still talk to God
when all you want to do is cry?

How do you fold your hands
and close your eyes,
when inside you feel broken,
and your soul is tired?

When the night feels dark,
and hope seems far away,
do you still believe
God hears your silent prayers?

Preacher,
when your heart is bleeding,
do you trust that God
can heal the hurt,
slowly,
day by day?

Because I am here,
feeling lost and small,
wondering if God’s love
is bigger than my pain.

If you know the way,
please show me how to pray—
to trust, to hope,
even when it’s hard,
even when my heart is breaking.
