A Prayer For Healing

Dear Lord, in these days of trying times, I come to you humbled and fearful. I'm in knowledge of friends, family And the unknown battling heartache, Depression, illness and death. I've come with peace in my heart, Love in my soul and belief in my mind, That you Lord, will heal them. Cradle them in your arms and ease their woes. Remove the doubt that weighs On the minds of the worrisome. Redirect the paths of the misguided So your word will be a light unto their feet. Unlock the doors of the negative minded Show them that despite where they are in life, They have purpose. Allow them to experience your heavenly smile. Touch their hearts Lord. Let them feel your love like They've never felt it before. Hold their hands, Lord! Give them the strength to carry on Even when they feel like there's No hope left within them Because all things are done through you. Comfort the grieving so they may find Strength and support in the hearts and faces Where there wasn't any. Show them mercy, Lord, I ask that these words reach anyone Anywhere who needs to hear them. Allow them to flow as free and open As the winds and oceans You've so graciously given us. May these words from my mouth And the meditation of my heart Be acceptable in your sight dear Lord, My strength and my redeemer. Amen. 12/08/16
