Prayer for Courage
O Jesus, all I want to do is remain in bed all day and cry. Everything seems to be meaningless right now. Knowing my child is with you in heaven keeps me going.

In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen.

Speak to me Lord, for your servant is listening. Heal my broken heart. Amen.

Hold Me in Your Arms Prayer

Helping a Hurting Friend Prayer
Merciful Lord, my heart weeps for my friend whose baby was miscarried. Please guide me on how I can ease her pain. Enable me to show my understanding that losing a baby before birth is as much a loss as an infant death after the baby was already born.

Help me walk with her in compassion through her stages of grief and help me find encouraging scriptures for her miscarriage. Amen.

Relieve the Guilt Prayer
Loving God, please help us as we deal with the passing of our unborn child. I especially intercede for my wife who is struggling with guilt.

Lord, take care of our child until we are together again. Amen.

Prayer for Refuge for Our Friend

Give us the words to say and the things to do to help her through her grief. Release her from her prison of hurt and confusion. Amen.
