Another Blessed Day

Today is the day, another, that our Heavenly Father has given us.
Starting out seeing the gloominess, I knelt and prayed to Jesus.
Really as I pray, the gloominess? It went away.
Talking to my Father and His Son, it became sunny, the morning turned bright in a big 
way.

Problems about general life, like which way the Lord wanted me to go.
A family member is sick mentally, (my Wife’s Sister) my Wife loves her so.
So saying a special prayer, I’ve prayed that in God’s will He’ll intervene, save her.
On my knees, I know the Father is listening, maybe a blessing, knowing she’s Jesus 
Sister.

The gloominess of this day will, with our Fathers infinite wisdom will become bright.
This I know God has my Wife’s Sister. In Faith and His power, He may make her see 
the light.
You see before she became sick, she was a Christian dutiful Wife with a Daughter 
and two Sons.
So with Our Lords healing power He will take her demons, put them to rest, she will 
become with Him, One.

Trusting in His wisdom, trusting His compassion,
He’ll manifest His great power, releasing her from this earthly entrapment.
She will be healed if our Lord says it is so and He will’s it.
She’ll regain His love, His grace, His compassion, and she will know total fulfillment.
