A Prayer of a Sick Person
Pray by candlelightJesus Christ, my Lord and Savior, You became man and died on the cross
for our salvation. You healed people of sickness and affliction through
Your love and compassion. Visit me, Lord and grant me strength to bear
this sickness with which I am afflicted, with patience, submission to
Your will and trust in Your loving care. I pray that You will bless the
means used for my recovery and those who administer them. Grant that
my sickness may be to my spiritual benefit and that I may live the rest
of my life more faithfully according to Your will. For You are the source
of life and healing and to You I give praise and glory, now and forever.
Amen.
