 Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely … my hope is in you.
(Psalm 25:16, 21)
A prayer when pregnant and lonely, based on Psalm 25:16-21
God, I need your mercy now more than ever. I feel all alone, helpless and overwhelmed. (v. 16)
 The responsibility I face seems to be too much for me. Help me manage it. (v. 17)
You see my isolation. Show me how to connect with others and talk often with you. Forgive me for blocking you out. (v. 18)
See how my challenges have increased. Sometimes it feels as if everyone is against me. Remind me that I am not the only person that has ever felt this way. (v. 19)
At times I am filled with fear. You promise to give protection. Guard my life. Guard my baby’s life. Guard my heart. (v. 20)
Remind me that I can count on you and take refuge in you. Thank you that I am not alone when I trust in you! You are my hope and my friend. (v. 21)
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
 Heavenly Father,
So many women who face an unplanned pregnancy experience loneliness.
Help them turn to You, lean on You, and trust You. Give them the comfort of an earthly Friend and the presence of Jesus.
In His name, Amen.
