A Cheered Soul

What are the concerns and the cares that consume you? How is your soul doing?
The concerns and the cares of this world can be overwhelming and burdensome. Our souls can be consumed with the cares of this life. We can be overwhelmed by the anxieties of this world. Our souls can grow weary.
The Psalmist writes, “When the cares of my heart are many, your consolations cheer my soul.” (Psalm 94:19, ESV).
When our souls grow tired in the face of the difficulties of this life, God’s presence and comfort will cheer us as we persevere.
May we seek God and his consolation in this troubled life, and when our soul grows weary, may we experience a cheered soul in God’s comforting presence.
A Prayer in Times of Social Conflict or Distress: “Increase, O God, the spirit of neighborliness among us, that in peril we may uphold one another, in suffering tend to one another, and in homelessness, loneliness, or exile befriend one another. Grant us brave and enduring hearts that we may strengthen one another, until the disciplines and testing of these days are ended, and you again give peace in our time; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.” (#44., Book of Common Prayer, 2019).
