For Those Walking In Darkness

God of infinite compassion, God of all comfort, reveal yourself as the Light of Life to those who have been brought into the darkness of sorrow.  Strengthen the hearts that faint under a heavy burden.  Let them know that in thieir distress you care about them with and unfailing compassion.  Help them to bear their burdens with patience, looking to you to lghten their load.  Amen.
