A PRAYER FOR REMOVAL OF IMPEDIMENTS IN THE WAY

O Loving Lord, I thank You for this time of prayer. I offer my praises umpteen times and thank You with gratitude for hearing all my prayers and having blessed me. I praise You, O Jesus Christ, knowing that You alone love and make me live a good life. The failures I had in my early life continue to worry me. This worry deprives me of sleep and I am not able to do anything properly. I took efforts to become a physician, but I failed. It tantalizes me. If I had become a doctor, I would not be facing the financial problems today and I would have led a peaceful life. This thought tortures me. If I had become an engineer like those who studied with me, I would have earned several thousands like them and my life would have been better. Such thoughts keep demoralizing me. As I had not studied well, I am in a small job. I have to do all the odd jobs my superiors command me. I am heart-broken. Thinking this way makes me question why I should live this way. O Jesus Christ, sometimes I am tempted to commit suicide. Because of my defeats and barriers in my life, I have been forced to live with this person as spouse. I am greatly confused and depressed. Your words often encourage me. As said by David, the thought of his words “though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me; Your rod and staff, they comfort me” comforts me. You have said: “Do not remember the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing, now it shall spring forth..” (Isaiah 43:18-19). According to this verse, make peace abound in my heart. Continue to bless me.  In the name of Jesus Christ, I make this prayer, O Father. Amen.
