Lord I lie tonight in the cold unable to wrap myself in the cover of Your Grace. The pain like snowflakes blanket me in a storm that has no end. Trouble tarries in this chill; memories gust a relentless assault sending the lack of warmth even deeper. Like frozen rain stinging into the face of today yesterday sleets downward. Tomorrow too is frozen, its promises trapped by lips unspeaking. Shivering against the cold shakes loose any hope of heavenly focus. Lord in this night I lay, too cold to pray... |

Even the deaf could hear the heart behind this, my friend... and He's always listening, even when we can't voice our pleas. The beauty of this is exceeded only by the pain that penned it... I shiver as I read. |

"Tomorrow too is frozen, its promises trapped by lips unspeaking." You write of pain so well. I wish you relief... Though temporarily, tomorrow seems frozen and it's promises trapped, those promises will become warm again. Dautz |

With this much sincerity I am sure you are not going to be sleeping without a hand resting on our shoulder. Beautiful prayer, and yes, sometimes we do need to know that is okay to shiver. |
