On My Knees

my head in my hands I ask you Lord why my children ? why 3 of my children? stricken in prime youth with conditions, diseases not cancer not yet but painful, sickening, difficult to manage surgery, surgeries, thank God for work and health insurance but their pain and discomfort all three times three is hard to bear Lord on top of everything else its hard to bear. I'm trying to trust in infinite wisdom I'm trying to keep one from depression but even I don't feel quite like soldiering on. it's the suddenness, the unexpected unknown illnesses conditions syndroms (who heard of this?) its got me down Lord You've got me on my knees.
