Prayer Request
God, I know that I have not been the best of men and I know that I have send and I know that I have forsaken you, but God pray to you now to please please take away the black cloud that is over. I did not realize that when I reach this age of 66 years old that I wouldn’t be alone, depressed, that my family doesn’t talk to me even though I moved closer to be with them. I just feel that my life has been a waste of time and I do have two wonderful children that are adults and I have three grandchildren and I love them all very much and I’m proud of all of them but when I look back over my life and where I am today, it’s just not what I envisioned And then here I am at my age and I just feel lost just lost so please God help me to find my way. Help me to figure out what I need to do and where I need to be please Lord, please help me..

Merciful and loving God,
We come before You with the heart of Steven Burge, who cries out to You in sorrow and longing. You know his journey—the missteps, the regrets, the moments of silence and solitude. You see the black cloud that weighs heavy on him, and You hear his plea for light.
Lord, Steven is 66, and though he hoped for closeness and joy, he finds himself feeling alone and lost. He moved closer to family, yearning for connection, yet feels unseen. Wrap him in Your comfort, Father. Let him know he is not forgotten, not forsaken, not unloved.
Remind him of the beauty he’s brought into the world—two wonderful children, three precious grandchildren. Let their lives be a reflection of the love and goodness that still lives in him. Help him see that his life has not been wasted, that every breath has meaning, and that redemption is always within reach.
Guide him, Lord. Show him the path forward. Give him clarity, purpose, and peace. Let Your grace wash over him and lift the weight from his shoulders. Speak to his heart and remind him: You are with him, even now. Especially now.
Amen.
Try to find some hobbies that you enjoy...walking, cards, cooking, anything...reading..go to the library...challenge yourself to feel good about YOURSELF first. That comes from finding things that you are good at, enjoy...try to have some company by going places and seeing people, join a club. you have to create your own life that you enjoy and if the other aspects come back in, that is great, wonderful. make sure they know you would love it...but create and build your life...it's the only way.
