Poem
the new store opened in town, everyone including herself was eager to go check it out and see what was there. as she arrived and got out she thought I am not gonna like this store it was nothing fancy, no big bold signs no displays in the windows except the words WELCOME. she grabbed a cart as she always did slowly walking down each and every row, nothing was really interesting her so she went back up front put the cart back, as she started to leave she saw at the corner all lined up boxes of key chains. most were plain, some fancy and one that she could not stop looking at, she picked it up it was a key chain with a cross. at the bottom hang a small sign that said pray. now she had stopped praying many months ago her faith shaken by so many unanswered prayers, so many things had been happening she felt God had had not been listening to her. she laid the key chain down and went to her car she couldn't get the key chain out of her mind. why she asked her self is this bothering me so? she got back out went back in bought the key chain and placed it on her ring. a few seconds later a mother started screaming for help!, she got out of her car and ran to her called 911 and asked if there were anything she could do, the mother crying said my son is dying he is the last of my children would you pray and ask God to let me keep him longer. she was so taken back. she silently held the key chain and asked God for help for this mother and her son. tears began falling she realized than and there that her life had been filled with so many blessings but she took them all for granted from that day on the key chain went every where with her and never again did she think her problems were greater than others. she told God that day she knew why it was she was meant to get that key chain, the word pray did not mean just for her but for those all around who had nothing and felt so alone, afraid, empty and sad. she prayed and prays every day now knowing the cross on the chain is God and the word pray is for all out there who needs prayers.
