Don't break their hearts.....

On January 12 and 13, 2001, I had a 1 pound mass removed from my brain. Doctors said I would need to learn to walk and talk all over again. Our Lord answered my prayers then and said, "NO." Four days after the second brain surgery I walked out of my hospital room holding the Lord's hand without a trace of any type of loss of anything. Though I would love to go to God right this instant, to pray for that would be a selfish prayer. So, I offer this prayer for the sake of my family and all those who surround me with love. Especially Jon, (my youngest son who we adopted at just 8 days old) who now, at only ten years old, still has difficulty understanding what death is all about. Thank you all for reading and reviewing the writings that God gives to me. You, too, surround me with heartfelt love.
I thank you again and love you all too.
May God bless and keep you in His loving arms.

January will mark ten years,
Since they removed that deadly mass;
But other things are now breaking,
My Lord, is it too much to ask?

Lord, please give me just ten more years,
To watch little Jon grow strong and tall;
Grant me the health that I once had,
Help me be strong; don't let me fall.

Lord, I'm ready to go today,
My God! That would be fine with me;
But Jon and others need me here,
Lord, please hear my pitiful plea.

Not for me would I ask You this,
I'd gladly leave this world behind;
To worship You up in Heaven,
Yes, my Lord, that would be real fine.

But that would only be selfish,
And I know that is not Your way;
For Your help, I ask You again,
Jesus, please hear me as I pray.

Lord, You are kind and merciful,
I know You hear me when I pray;
This prayer is for those who love me,
Lord, please don't break their hearts today.

He says that prayer are a proof of being loved and cared for, and that He will never break any heart but that the empty places in Heavens must be filled...or His heart will be broken.
God bless you with many many years.
