When someone we care about is hurting, we want to do whatever we can to help them heal. Whether they’re dealing with a physical illness or a difficult emotional time, we offer our prayers and support.
One of the most powerful things we can do for someone who is hurting is to simply be there for them. We can offer a listening ear, a shoulder to cry on, or just a comforting presence. Sometimes, just knowing that someone cares can make all the difference in the world.
If you’re not sure what to say or do, here is a short prayer for healing and recovery for someone you love:
