Jesus help me, I am so confused.
My heart won’t open to You.
My eyes can’t see You.
My mind blocks You.
My mouth cannot utter words to comfort You.
My soul is clouded with darkness.

Please take pity on me, a poor sinner. I am helpless, without Your Presence. Fill me with Your Graces, so that I have the courage to reach out to You, to beg You for Mercy.

Help me, Your lost disciple, who loves You, but who no longer feels love stir in my heart, to see and accept the Truth.

Amen.
