![]() Lord, I know that sometimes you get so busy with the things you have to do But I was wondering if you could take a moment to tend to someone so good~ His name is Coach Rob Graham His family lives next door to me I play with his daughter, Alexis my sister, Landry, plays with little McKenzie~ Their mommy’s name is Tammy, she keeps the daily hospital vigil for the man she loves so well Coach Rob is in a coma … Lord, he’s not doing so well~ My ~Poet~, my mommy and my daddy, too say you hear each prayer I make So, Lord, I’m hoping that you can touch Coach Rob and let him awake~ It’s not too much to ask, I just know, for our dear friends need their daddy home and you are the only one who can make it so~ Thank you, Lord, for listening And for the miracle that only you can make come true I just know that Coach Rob will be okay for we all have all placed our faith in you~ I know that you hear each prayer that I make Let Coach Rob now come awake~ ~*~ Thirty-three year old Rob Graham is the basketball coach for Bishop Moore High School, Orlando, Florida~ On February 19, while coaching a game, he fell to the floor in cardiac arrest~ He was finally brought back to life and hospitalized, where he has remained in a coma since~ The other afternoon, Delaney whispered, with head bowed and hands clasped in prayer, "Poet, do you know who I'm praying for?" I replied, "Honey, I 'think' I know ... but you tell me." She said, "I'm praying for Alexis and McKenzie's daddy, cause my mommy said my prayers could help." Tearfully, this ~Grandma Poet~ could only hug her and tell her, "Yes, Delaney, your prayers will help." Would you all join us in prayer vigil for Coach Rob? On post #5 here I have placed a photograph of Rob and his girls~ ~*When the heart grieves over what it has lost, the spirit rejoices over what it has left. - Sufi epigram <))>< Email [email protected] [This message has been edited by Marge Tindal (03-16-2005 07:36 PM).] |
