Dear Yahweh, please help…

As I wrestle with a darkness that consumes me within, I call out to the unseen power that stirs my soul, Guide me through the treacherous labyrinth of my own heart, And illuminate the path that leads to stillness and peace. Shadows suffocate and silence seems lost on me, Yet, in the void, I yearn for a gentle voice to say, "My child, do not fear, for I am near, I will comfort thee." May it be so, and may I find solace in the presence that surrounds, A refuge from the turmoil that rends my mind asunder.

In the quietness of this still night, my heart fills with awe for the gentle touch that guides me through life. I thank you for the lessons of resilience, etched in the faces of those who have weathered the storms of the past.

Sitting in the stillness of the night, I turn to the quiet within. Guide my footsteps as I walk this path, that I may find balance in the midst of chaos.

In the stillness of night, I breathe out the weight of my days. I'm grateful for the threads that tie me to the land and to those who came before me, carrying the stories of their struggles and dreams.

As I stand before the stillness, I bring you emptiness and fullness. Fill my hollow spaces with warmth, and temper my overflowing heart with mercy.

In times of quiet darkness, I whisper the question, can I find my way? Is the path ahead lit by the flicker of memories, or must I forge a new course?
