Dear Lord, Please Hear My Prayer

Dear Lord, please hear my prayer,
I am on bended knee humble before you,
my body shakes from fear of the unknown,
a problem which hovers over my head,
as a lowly dark cloud following me,
you know what is in my aching heart,
making my days stormy with lightning bolts
striking all around waiting for a victim,
in supplication I ask that this problem
be resolved so I can go on with my life
without fear and look forward to face each
day wth hope.  Amen.

Sonia, such a beautiful expression of faith and trust pulled together with your flowing imagery - "a problem which hovers over my head." So graphic and visceral! Thank you for letting us share in your prayer. Know you are in mine.
