Desperate Prayer Quotes

“I sat outside in the hall. Everything was gone inside of me. I did not think. I could not think. I knew she was going to die and I prayed that she would not. Don’t let her die. Oh, God, please don’t let her die. I’ll do anything for you if you won’t let her die. Please, please, please dear God, don’t let her die. . . . You took the baby but don’t let her die. That was all right but don’t let her die. Please, please, dear God, don’t let her die.”
― Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell to Arms

“Tuhan, jika kau benar-benar ada... tunjukkan padaku. Hentikan aku,”
― Ida R. Yulia, Andante Part 2 (End): The Crave for Eternity

“Now, in this moment of darkness where she’d wanted only clarity, she begged Him.
“Please, make me just like other people,” she whispered into the earth. “Please, God, please. Just like them. Make me know what to say. Make me know how to show them I’m not all wrong.”
She didn’t know what the label meant. She didn’t know what she was. She only knew that she was so tired of speaking the same language as all of them, using the same expressions as all of them, only to be treated like an alien.
“Please,” she cried into the ground. “Please.”
She dug her hands into the grass and the soil. She gripped the dirt of the earth and begged for rescue. For someone to understand. For something to change. For intervention. For something to come down from the sky and make sense of everything for her. For a door to open and reveal that she was in the wrong story. A mistake. One that could be quickly rectified.”
