There are times when one feels empty.  Perhaps it’s a moment of feeling blue about something not going as expected, an unfortunate turn of events, or being down on yourself. Do you need some inspirational quotes for difficult times, or a prayer?

In these times of difficulty, it’s vitally important to take good care of yourself and not do anything harmful like overeat, go off your health routine, or do anything self-destructive.

Empty times are best filled with prayer.  To pray is to set yourself aside for a moment, and offer yourself up to God in spite of the condition you’re in.  In truth, the moment of weakness and emptiness is when you are most open to something new.  Something powerful can manifest in yourself and in your life when you let it.  Open yourself wide for God to come in.

That feeling of emptiness is actually an opportunity and an open room for soulful expansion and spiritual awakening.

Would you like to pray together with me right now, in that place of emptiness and opportunity?

God (or higher Power),

Grace me with your attention,
Fill me with Spirit and Truth,
Open me wider so that I can be filled
With your magnificence.

Remember me in this moment
Heal me with Your Love,
Let me remember you in all the moments
Of my life.

This I pray in Love for You,
This I know as You are Love.

Amen.
