Today, I Believe That You Will Soothe My Soul and Grant Me Peace

Here is the English translation. Oh Lord, please grant me the peace that the world cannot give. Almighty Lord, I sit here amidst the busyness of life, quietly offering you a whisper from the depths of my soul. Each passing day, my heart is weighed down with worries and unseen fears that no one knows. There are nights when I lie awake, not because my body is tired, but because my soul has not yet found true rest. I do not seek peace from this world, for I have seen clearly, everything here passes, changes, and can easily carry me away. But Lord, I believe there is another kind of peace, peace that does not come from everything going smoothly, but from a deep place within my soul, where I know I belong to you and nothing can separate me from your love. You have said, do not fear for I am with you, I give you my peace, not as the world gives. Those words flow like cool water through my heart in times of dryness, and I know the peace you give is not a temporary feeling, but a presence. You are there, even when I cannot see you, even when I am confused, even when I am so weak that all I can do is whisper, Oh Lord, please do not leave me. Can you hear my voice Lord? I truly need a sign from you to know that I am on the right path. Sometimes, all I long for is a moment of calm in my heart, a brief stillness within my soul, to know that you are still there, watching over every small step I take. I do not ask you to take away all the suffering in my life, because I understand that it is in suffering that I learn to trust more. But please Lord, teach me to find peace even in my wounds, even in the most turbulent moments. Please give me enough faith to know that I am not alone. I thank you Lord, for always being present quietly, for lifting me up in times when I did not even realize, for patiently waiting for me to return each time I chase after fleeting things. Oh Lord, please grant me your peace, a peace that no one can take away, a peace that no circumstance can fade. Please help me keep my faith, even when my heart is weak. Please stay with me, today and forever. Amen. Oh Lord, without you, I am nothing. Almighty Lord, there are times when I ask myself, who am I without my accomplishments, without the recognition of others. I have tried so hard, to be praised, to be seen, to feel that I am worthy, but the more I chase after these things, the emptier I feel. There is a void in my heart that no compliment can fill, and I begin to wonder, am I searching for my worth in the wrong places? Oh Lord, deep within my heart, I long to know that I am valuable, not because of what I have accomplished, but simply because I am your child. I remember your words, you are my wonderful and marvelous creation, and I have called you by name, you are mine. Those words bring me to silence, because if you love me like this, is there anything else that could define me better? Lord, this world teaches me that I must be exceptional, stand out, and succeed in order to be loved. But you teach me, blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. And I know Lord, you do not demand that I be perfect. You love me in my weakness, limitations, and even in my cracks. Do you see me Lord? When I try and still fail, when I feel so small among those who are more talented, when I just want to disappear because I feel I am not enough, can you remind me once again that I am still precious in your eyes, even if I have not achieved anything significant in the eyes of the world? Oh Lord, I do not want to trade my soul for fleeting recognition, I want to belong to you, truly. I want to learn to love myself not because of my accomplishments, but because I am made in your image. Please help me to keep a simple and humble heart, so that I do not place my hope in things that are fleeting. Almighty Lord, please give me the courage to let go of the illusions about my worth. Teach me to know that. As long as you love me, that is enough. I do not need the applause of the world. If I can hear you calling me, you are my beloved child. Please keep me living in that truth, today and forever, Amen. Oh Lord, only you can fill the void in my heart. There are nights when I lie still, gazing at the ceiling, feeling an emptiness in my heart. Everything I thought would bring me happiness, work, relationships, busyness, fleeting joys, all vanish when I am left alone with myself. I wonder, why do I still feel incomplete, even though it seems like I have enough? Oh Lord, could it be that I have tried to fill my soul with things the world deems valuable, yet they cannot heal the emptiness that only you can touch? I have pursued many things. I have sought joy in others, hoping it would make me feel whole. But the farther I move from you, the more desolate my heart becomes. I remember your words, whoever drinks this water will be thirsty again, but whoever drinks the water I give them will thirst, and I understand. The water from this world cannot quench the thirst of my soul. Only in you, Lord, will I find true rest. I long to return to you, like a weary prodigal child, coming back to my father after so many days of wandering. Do you hear me, Lord? I truly need a sign from you to know that I am on the right path, for I have grown tired of wandering among fleeting things. I have tried to fill my loneliness with polite laughter, with temporary pleasures, but after all of that, only an unnamed isolation remains. Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. You have said this, Lord, and I believe it. I am coming to you, O Lord, with a wounded heart and empty hands. I bring nothing but a longing to be touched by you, to be loved by you, to have you live within me. Almighty Lord, I know this world cannot fill my soul. I belong to you. I was created to live in you, and nothing except your presence can make me feel truly alive. O Lord, please help me stop running and rest in your embrace. Teach me to let go of the illusions of this world, so I may know that true peace does not come from outward things, but from you, the one who is the source of eternal life. Please stay within me, and let me remain in you. Amen. O Lord, I am in pain, but I believe you are still there, quietly loving me. Almighty Lord, there are days when I just want to sit down and cry, not because I am weak, but because my heart is so weary, so full of things I don't know how to share with anyone but you. I once thought that if I believed in you enough, life would be easier, everything would go smoothly. But no, Lord, there are still pains, losses, and moments of silence so deep that I cannot avoid them. And I confess, there were times when I wondered, has the Lord forsaken me? Are you still seeing me? When I prayed through tears and everything stayed the same, I began to doubt. When I tried to live well, only to end up with loneliness and hurt, I began to fear. But then, in the midst of the silence, I hear a whisper of your voice. My child, I am still here, I love you with an everlasting love, and I realize suffering is not proof that you have left me. On the contrary, it may be the way you are calling me back, shaping me, purifying my soul from the fleeting things. O Lord, is it not suffering that helps me see what is eternal and what is fragile? In times of happiness, I easily forget you. But in moments of pain, I return to you with a sincere and broken heart. And it is when I am weakest that I feel you holding me up the most. I remember your words, those who sow with tears will reap with songs of joy. O Lord, if today's pain is part of the good plan you have for me, please give me the strength to walk through it. If today's tears are the seeds for a harvest tomorrow, please give me the courage to sow them. Do not let me give up halfway, thinking that you have forgotten me. Do not let fear steal the hope I hold in my heart. Do you hear me, Lord? I really need a sign from you to know that I am not going down the wrong path. I do not ask you to take away all my suffering, but I ask to understand its meaning, so I do not waste a single tear in my life. Almighty Lord, thank you for not abandoning me, even though I have blamed, doubted, and even wanted to give up. Thank you for those times when you quietly walked beside me, wiping away my tears without me knowing. Thank you for the closed doors, for they have brought me closer to you. Please hold me tight, O Lord. Do not let me go through suffering alone. Be there, as you have always been there, when I pray at night, when I am silent in the long day, when I fall and do not know what to do. Please give me eyes of faith to see your love, even in trials. Please give me a humble heart to grow, to mature, and to return to you day by day, closer and closer. Amen. O Lord, in your embrace, I find true rest. Almighty Lord, how many times have I tried to carry everything on my own, as if I must be strong enough to deserve your love. But I am tired, O Lord. Tired from pretending to be fine when my heart is in turmoil. Tired from chasing after responsibilities, expectations, and fears that I have never dared to put down. I realize I have forgotten something very important. You do not require me to be perfect in order to be loved. You love me in my weakness, limitations, and weariness. You are still here gently calling me. Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. O Lord, how comforting are those words. In this world, I must prove that I am good enough, smart enough, important enough. But by your side, I can simply be myself, no need to pretend, no need to hide. You don't come to me when I am strong. You come when I am broken. You don't wait for me to succeed before you love me. You love me when I was still in the dark, in failure, and in doubt. Sometimes I ask myself, are you here, Lord? In all this chaos, can you hear my heart? And then, in a rare moment of silence, I feel an indescribable peace, not from me, but from you. It is your quiet, steadfast presence that has comforted my soul many times when no one else understood or stayed by my side. Almighty Lord, thank you for always being patient with me. Even when I neglect you, forget to pray and chase after fleeting things. Thank you for never stopping to open your arms to welcome me back, even when my heart is cramped and dry. Like the good shepherd, you seek me in the wilderness of my worries, just to speak one word, my beloved, rest in me. You know me better than anyone else. You understand the things I cannot say, the sorrows I have yet to name, and you love me, not because of what I do for you, but simply because I am yours. It's as simple as that. Oh Lord, please teach me to know when to stop. Teach me to listen to your voice amidst the noise of life. Please teach me to rest my head on your shoulder, not to escape, but to be restored by your love and your eternal presence. Please give my heart the trust to surrender, to return to you every time I am weary. And please do not let me forget that, only in you, I am truly myself. Amen.
