Everyone says, but very few actually do.
It's basically a polite way of telling someone that what they're going through sucks but it's not your problem
Now, if you ACTUALLY keep the person in your thoughts and prayers, AND make at least some effort to help them, then you're using this phrase with meaning. But most people use this phrase to politely say they don't give a damn about what you're going through.

Get the prayer driven development mug.Scandinavian name for a boy constantly following his dreams no matter the cost, he might even screw over his friends, family or lover on the way in order to achieve his goals. A Preben is willing to spend a long time tricking and playing mind games with people close to him in order to success, or simply just for fun.
