Dear God, It's All Gone Horribly Wrong : Prayers for Stressed Christians

Being a Christian in the modern world can be very stressful indeed.

Everyone either thinks we're having a wonderful time with our marvellous, mysterious God, or they think we're fools for believing in a faith that surely died a death in the twentieth century ...In both scenarios, the negative feelings, stress and depression frequently experienced by today's Christian tend to be ignored, not least by one's fellow Christians.

However, in actual fact, God never discounts or ignores anyone.

With this in mind, here are one hundred prayers which tell it like it is to God so that even the worst about us is brought out into the open.

At the same time, the fact that God listens to all our prayers, no matter how angry, bitter or sad, is a beacon of hope for us all.May God travel with us more closely on our prayer journeys.
