Shall We Pray?

by J. Allen Wilson — Read all 1,629 poems by J. Allen Wilson

I will not name names out of respect of wishes...but there is a special need at hand.

Sunday, February 1, 2004

 


 


She came to me with words of sorrow,


and fearfulness of no more tomorrows.


With an open heart she did tell


of her health not being too well.


 


She wants only to live and not say goodbye,


to share her thoughts and love from inside.


There are many, who know her by name,


And have read her words that carry loves flame.


 


Yet now in her time… and her hour of need,


On friendships developed, she wishes not to impede.


So I wearing my intercessors hat will broach the issue at hand.


 


I of this den will ask all…yes all to join in.


For there is another that has a need,


and all I ask is, that you all will join with me.


Together in heart and mind of one accord,


I ask that today, that in all earnestness, we pray.


 


Pray with a sincere and believing heart,


That God, in his power, will honor our part.


Have faith that it will be so,


And that miracles still happen and show.


 


Pray for the health to this body return


Pray for peace a peace of mind she yearns.


And lift quickly this spirit of depression,


and cast out infirmity in rapid succession.


 


I will not name any names,


for God is in the know.


So stand fast today,


And for a fellow poet pray,


For you see…I believe,


A difference we can make today.


 


Shall we pray?

Requests are heard and answered in His time--God's presence is felt where two or more are gathered and those at AD have gathered. Please hear our request, dear Lord; You know to whom we pray for. b

Al, you are such a good person to do this for someone in need, your reward will not be of this earth!
I sincerely hope and yes, even pray (as I usually only meditate), that this person finds peace both here and in her future home with her god. I may not know this lady, but I hate to lose anyone & I will send this poem on to others I know that can start prayer chains for her...excellent thing you do here, Al! Karmically, you have broken down all your past negatives with this one positive for someone else...I envy you your big heart...Peace, Ed & Rufuz
