Dear Lord
Please have Jesus walk me through this new procedure
It has been a while except for daily and nightly prayer.
But I knew that no matter what you were always there.
I am so sorry I have to bother you again,
But you knew I would be back and you knew when.
The news struck at my heart even though expected,
I had a feeling deep inside that it would be detected.
The presence of tumors had reared it's ugly head,
Leaving me with an all to familiar sensation of dread.
However, I have found a way to defeat this affect.
I think of a happy place where I would love to connect.
At this moment it would be the chapel in Rome,
That I would love to be able to call home.
So my way of dealing with all this unwelcome strife,
Is to remember how marvelous is the Cyber knife.
Like in the past I trust the doctors you will bless.
Knowing you will help me find the courageousness.
I pray you will send your beloved son to my side.
To give me calm reserve deep inside.
In His presence I will have the strength,
To endure this procedure regardless of length.
I know if it is your will and I pray that it is so.
My ailing body will be healed from head to toe.
I would love to have Jesus take me by the hand.
So we walk together over the beach of soft sand.
As usual Dear Lord I will close with love,
Your devoted servant.
Cali
