Prayers for Christians Living With Disabilities and Caregivers

Disability and caregiving can both bring holy, complicated, ordinary needs to the surface: strength for today, patience for repeated tasks, wisdom for decisions, grief over what is hard, gratitude for what is beautiful, and rest when the body and soul feel tired.

Prayer gives us a place to bring all of it to God.
