Praying from 2 Corinthians 8:13. Themes: Sacrifice, Love, Humility.

Dear God, please help me to remember that my struggles and hardships are not meant to cause distress to others. May I always strive to be a source of comfort and support to those around me, even in the midst of my own difficulties. Help me to be selfless and compassionate, and to always put the needs of others before my own. Amen.
