Prayer against adversity and depression

Lord Jesus,

I present to you all the sadnesses, anxieties, worries,

the sense of loneliness, isolation, failure;

All states of depression, despair,

distrust, overthrow, demeaning

where I often find myself.

With my own strength I can't get out

from these moods of sadness and depression.

You intervene.

How did you appear to the two disciples of Emmaus along the way

and you put hope in their hearts and smile on their faces,

so come next to me.

Free me from these moods.

Fill the void of my heart and my life,

let me emerge from all sadness and depression

.Infuse the Holy Spirit into me,

Spirit of comfort and joy,

of hope and strength

Amen
