I pray in Jesus' name that truth about mental illness will prevail. I pray for all who suffer from mental illness that they will experience relief from distress, enriched coping abilities, and soothing comfort. Lord, please help them to know that they are in the Palm of God's Almighty Hand where darkness will not overtake them. Help them to hold onto God's promise that He will never leave nor forsake those who trust in Him. I pray for loved ones of those suffering from mental illness, for wisdom and strength that gives them ability to help in a productive way, knowing that only God is Savior, Protector, and Redeemer in situations that are too big for us. I pray that politicians will step forward in courage with constructive measures that improve life for these very vulnerable citizens.
