There are things beyond our ken And we yearn for what has been Please, hear this beseech Healthy hearts and bodies strong These to our friends should belong Giver of life, I humbly beg Touch them now with healing grace Let them walk in joy’s embrace I lift them now in prayer Give them peace, replace their fears Let pain cease, erase their tears I’m on my knees to Thee Give strength to spirit, comfort soul Make beloved bodies whole With every breath, I plea |

Suthern, this prayerful plea to Our Father, is just what our beloved Flower Girl needs right now. In fact, I know many who are in need of such words and I am saving this graceful, prayerful poem for them as well. Love & God's Healing Light, Linda  |

As I read this beautiful poem, I thinking, how much you give even though life has done you such wrong in recent months. You're a marvel, dear lady, a marvel. Pray...yes, I think we all are...I know I am. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

I feel such warmth, comfort and kindness from this poem - and I am not in need at the moment, so I can't imagine how very much it must mean to those for whom it is written! You are a kind, loving person and you deserve such warmth, comfort and kindness from all you come across. - Owl |

SweetSuthernFriend~ I thank you for this prayerful thought~ To give of oneself, when one also has needs, is a *gift* that heals two~  *Huglets*  ~*Marge*~ ~*The sound of a kiss is not as strong as that of a cannon, but it's echo endures much longer*~ |

May I kneel beside you? Or in the length and breadth of space behind you? Just so that someone knows where our knees are...and how our heads are bowed just so. Suthern, my Ruth... thank you. |

I also missed this, and what a shame - this is certainly a prayer that could be recited every single day, for so many. So - thank you I start now by sending this one out to those needing the healing. There are just far too many aren't there? Beautiful prayer Ruth. Waste not a second ~ Carpe' Diem |

I lift them now in prayer We all have prayed for something and praying does nothing for the cause but gives us hope hopefully you will find it in your nature to reply to one of my pieces |
