You Are Not A Burden to God | Your Nightly Prayer

Do you ever feel like you’re bothering God when you pray? Maybe you start with, “Sorry to trouble You again, Lord…” or wonder if He’s tired of hearing the same requests. In tonight's prayer and devotional Rachel Wojo, host of Untangling Prayer, reminds us that God never rolls His eyes at our prayers. He doesn’t view us as burdens—He treasures every word.

Psalm 116:5 paints a picture of God’s heart: full of compassion, kindness, and mercy. The Hebrew word for compassion, racham, reflects a deep, tender love—like that of a mother for her child. Your Heavenly Father is infinitely patient, never too busy, and never tired of hearing your voice.

So whether you’ve prayed about something once or a thousand times, remember this: you are His beloved child. Children are never burdens to a good Father.

📖 Tonight’s Scripture: Psalm 116:5

“How kind the Lord is! How good he is! So merciful, this God of ours!”

🙏 Your Nightly Prayer

Heavenly Father,
Forgive me for the times I’ve treated prayer like I was intruding. Thank You that Your compassion never runs dry and that You delight in every word I speak to You. Tonight, I let go of the lie that I’m “too much” for You and receive the truth that I am loved, welcomed, and cherished. Thank You for listening every single time I call.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
