Prayer for God's presence in lonely places

Almighty God, we recognise that all good things come from you. While we feel discouraged, underserving and unworthy, you continue to shower us with treasures of love, forgiveness, healing and restoration. You remind us that when we dive into the depths of the sea, or soar to the heights of the sky and travel to lands afar, that we cannot escape your presence. So, when we feel forgotten and alone, come close to us and help us encounter your strengthening Spirit.
