Dear Bruce,
You are not alone. Most of us struggle each and everyday. Whether in health, overdue bills, the loss
of a loved one, regardless we all struggle. Some days are unbearable. Focus on Jesus and just sit down by yourself , and talk with Jesus. Tell Him what your problems are and ask Him, if He might lighten your load for right now. We can’t pray nor talk to Jesus in vain. We must believe that He does love us. We know that. But please when You pray (speaking) to Jesus believe that He surely will lighten your load. Be patient and pray always. He will help you. I know.
"Whatever it is you pray for, Believe that you have already received it, and it shall be yours"–Matt
God’s Peace to you Bruce.
