Prayer For a Despondent Person

Comfort,we beseech thee,most gracious God,this thy servant,cast down and faint of heart amidst the sorrows and difficulties of the world; and grant that, by the power of thy Holy Spirit,they may be enabled to go upon their way rejoicing,and giving thee continual thanks for thy sustaining providence; through Jesus Christ our Lord.Amen.
(from The Monastic Diurnal).
In these increasingly troubling and difficult times,this is a much needed prayer.
