"Why?" she said. "Father God, I need you to come and help me. I feel...I feel lost. I feel like I don't know what to do. My heart is heavy and all I can think of is Dorian and all I want to do is try to do something for him. But this is just too hard, Father God.

Father God, I'm suffering! My heart is suffering! It's in pieces! Father God, please heal me. Help me to put my trust in You so you can deliver me from this suffering!"
