Dear Lord,
It's me, standing before you.
It's me, who has sinned greatly and gotten lost many times while seeking You.
It's me, your servant, and I am now clueless with my life.
Dear Lord,
I'm now in this unbelievable state of confusion.
It seems as though I have no more strength in me to complete this stage of my life.
Being in this position has made me feel as insignificant as a speck of dust.
I am at a complete loss for what to do and have no idea how to get out of this rut.
Dear Lord,
I beg you to look at me, your pimply-faced, wicked servant.
I'm lying here, absolutely powerless.
I want to beg for your assistance.
But I'm too scared, ashamed, and worthless to even lift my hand.
Dear Lord,
I am your servant, and I have sinned far too much.
To ask for your assistance in this way feels very shameful.
But I'm genuinely at a loss.
With my strength dwindling by the minute, It feels like I cannot proceed on this voyage.
Dear Lord,
Please let me approach you in my utter lack of shame.
Give me the courage to come before you as a sinner in need of mercy and forgiveness.
Because deep inside, I still believe.
Laa haula wala quawwata illa billah.
My dear Lord,
I'm at the end of my rope, sobbing in a puddle of sorrow.
I'd want to raise my hand and ask for your forgiveness and help.
Please have mercy on me.
Allow and empower me to finish what I started by your will and help, amen.
Medan, October 1st 2022.
