Faith at times of adversity

Precious Lord, Son of the Living Father, I give you thanks for all the beauty of the world which surrounds me. I confess that the comfort of my home and the insulated world in which I live makes it so easy to miss how much I need you. Help me to believe in you in the most difficult of times, as well as the most comfortable of times in my life. Help me to remain focused on you in all circumstances. And when the stones of adversity fall on and around me, remind me that these stones may be used to build the road upon which faith walks to you.
 
 
This prayer was on the LCUMC.org website and Lenten calendar for 3/2/15.    My friend Jane is not improving and the doctors have done everything they know how.  This prayer came to mind when I heard the news this morning. Please keep her in your prayers.
