Dear Lord

Dear Lord,

Thank you for all the blessings you have given us.

Lord, my Lola is sick.

She's sicker than I thought, and for this, I will never forgive myself.

I don't know what's going to happen to her, Lord, only you do.

It's her 5th day in the hospital today. I can't stand to see her like that.

Lord, thy will be done.

But I truly hope that it is your will that Lola recover from this episode in her life.

Lord, I pray for my Lola. I pray that you grant her your strength. I pray for your healing hand to touch her and make her well again.

Lord, I pray for me. I pray that you grant me strength to deal with this. I pray that during this time, you may help me show my Lola how much I love her, and how much she means to me. I pray that you may help me let Lola feel how much I love her.

Lord, thank you for my Lola. Thank you for giving her a great life. Thank you for allowing me to experience how great my Lola is, for allowing her to share her life with us.

Lord, thy will be done.

But I fervently pray that it is your will for my Lola to continue sharing her life with us here on earth.

Daddy, please help me in praying for Lola. Please help me be strong. I never really recovered from losing you, and I don't think I can handle another loss anytime soon.

I offer up everything to you, Lord. I trust in you. I know that you alone know what is best for all of us, and that you love us very much.

Thank you Lord, for loving us, for guiding us, for giving us strength and hope.

Thank you for always being there for us when we need you, even if we're not always there for you. We may not always show it, but we love you so much.

Thank you Lord for this experience. Please help us see you in this hardship that we are trying so hard to deal with, and please help us remember to look for you in this hardship that we are trying so hard to overcome.

Only you can help us through this.

And I surrender all to you.

Thank you, Lord.

Amen
