'Lord above, comfort me
Give me courage
Help me see.
Guide my actions, guide my words.
Let me know, my prayers are heard. Amen'
How often Lis and I have prayed that prayer. I have been praying it a lot this past week. I need courage and comfort and patience till I find out what is going on in my throat. Now that the Dr. says it is not drainage I am trying not to panic and remember that God knows what is going on and will walk beside me through this as He has every other storm in my life.
I need Him to guide my actions and my words as I move forward with my class and those who are supports to this program. The best for the kids is if we can all work together toward the same goal. To have them be 'regular' kids and succeed at life. Letting God guide my steps has paid off so far. He is the reason I am blessed by the program and those who work beside me loving these kids each and everyday.
Knowing that my prayers are heard matters. This is my comfort that God is the center of my life and will be even when I fall. Life is not always easy, in fact it has been rough at times. But knowing I never have to face it all alone gives me peace.
Lis is only 7 years old yet she has a remarkable grasp of the words and meaning of this simple prayer. What a comfort to know she understands that even if she can't reach me by phone, she can pray our prayer and be connected to her Father who is never unreachable.
Philippians 4:7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
In Him,
Joyful
