A Prayer for the Anniversary of the Loss of a Loved One | Your Daily Prayer

Anniversaries of loss can reopen old wounds and stir deep sorrow. But in that sacred space of remembrance, God draws near to the brokenhearted. This prayer gently guides you through the grief, offering comfort rooted in Psalm 34:18 — “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” Whether your loss is fresh or years behind you, God honors your tears and holds every memory. May this prayer remind you that while grief changes with time, love never fades—and neither does God’s presence.
