A Prayer for Healing After Exhaustion and Illness
After illness or prolonged stress, strength may return slowly. This prayer is for the frustrating middle stage when the worst may be over but normal energy has not yet returned.
Father, I am grateful to be moving forward, but I am frustrated by how slowly my strength is returning. Help me respect the limits of my body instead of pushing too hard and losing ground. Give me patience with naps, reduced schedules, and gradual progress. Restore my energy in the right time. Help me measure recovery by faithfulness, not speed.
Amen.
Scripture: Isaiah 40:29 Psalm 23:3
