Lord, I come to You with a heavy heart. You see the pain I carry from being misunderstood, mistreated, and overlooked. I try to make peace. I say “forgive me” even when I’m not in the wrong. Yet the mistreatment continues, and my reputation suffers for things I did not do. Lord, I ask why this is happening to me—but I know You hear me. Give me strength not to break. Give me peace when I’m surrounded by storms. Give me wisdom to respond with dignity and not despair. And Lord, please soften the hearts of those who hurt me. If they are acting from fear or pride, heal them too. Help me hold my head high, not in pride, but in quiet strength. Let me remember that I work for You above all others. Defend me where I cannot defend myself. And keep my spirit alive, even when others try to break it. Amen.
