Old Testament Verse

I am shut in so that I cannot escape; my eye grows dim through sorrow. Every day I call on you, O LORD.
Psalm 88:8-9

New Testament Verse

And a man lame from birth was being carried in. People would lay him daily at the gate of the temple called the Beautiful Gate so that he could ask for alms from those entering the temple.
Acts 3:2

Prayer

Lord God, I call out to you. Sometimes, I feel helpless and handicapped, hapless and hopeless. Sorrow fills me as if there is no escape. Lord, in your mercy, hear my prayer. Take control. Overcome my circumstances. Show the way. Today, empower me to bring others to the "Beautiful Gate" where you help and heal. Amen.
