Hurt

I am praying for you even when you don't believe in who I am praying to.  I love you anyway

I am praying for the strength to be able to deal with physical pain that takes its toll on the day to day

The hurt which distracts me from focusing on the tasks at hand causing me to worry

that robs me of precious time with my children to love and instruct them

that hinders my relationship with my wife who must pick up the slack while she hurts as well

I pray for your life after dad, how you dream of him all the time and sob quietly in the darkness after you wake up and realize he is not beside you.

I pray for your physical struggles, trying to function just enough to get up in the morning just to look out the window, wondering how the bills will get paid.

I pray for the loss of friends, who either don't understand, don't listen or don't care.

I pray for those grieving for friends who have died, seeking answers.

I pray for my family, to be together again for my sister to defeat drugs and alcohol and to be reunited with her son

As silly as it sounds, unless you really know me I wish I could shoulder this hurt for each of you.

However there is someone who already has and will.

Matthew 11:28 Come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden and I will give you rest
11:29  Take my yoke upon you and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart:  and ye shall find rest unto your souls

1 Peter 5:7 Casting all your care upon him for he cares for you.

John 14:27  Peace I leave with you, my piece I give unto you:  not as the world giveth, give I unto you.  Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.


Be encouraged today, that you do not need to fight the fight alone.  All my love :-)
