Dear Lord, "I wonder, as I get older and have more and more things go wrong with my body and my mind, what lies ahead."
I accept the fact I have to lay down this life before I can begin another, but I'm still a little bit scared. I like it here. I love my family and friends. I like the daily surprises, I even like the complaining. I want to live!
Whether I continue on in this life for a while longer or whether I begin my new life sooner than I'd bargained for, I guess it makes little difference. When I realize one life ends, another one will begin.
As my friends cry "There she goes," another batch will be calling "Here she comes."
Dear Lord, I place myself in Your loving arms. Please ease my doubts, deepen my trust, calm my fears, touch my aches and pains, hang onto me and restore my insight.
There is a God. There is more out there than meets the eye. There is a tomorrow. And I'm certain I'll be in it.
My prayers and thoughts continue for all of you dear girls, Hugs, Lola

Lola,

What a wonderful prayer! I have taken the liberty of sending it to several of our friends and family members. I hope you don't mind a little publishing of your handiwork!

God Bless You,
