Karen Webber frames her mental health journey through the Exodus story.

“Grant me the strength to sustain my life, / As you commanded…”

“We can’t always be brave, but we can dance.”

“We are commanded not to harm ourselves, because for some of us that is a struggle.”

“Who will find me worthy, if not You?”

“do not abandon us!”

“We will not enter our promised land/If we strike the rock within.”

This is a prayer for when I find myself consumed by reading a Facebook post, an article, or absorbed by my cell phone.

“It ravages my soul every day without end”
