Letters to God

"Don't let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me." John 14:1.

Not three minutes after I got into my car I heard this Bible verse on KLOVE. It's so amazing how God listens and puts little messages, or even straight scripture out there for you to stumble upon when you need it most. Right then and there I decided to trust God completely with Kesha, and gave everything over to Him. I feel so much better and I can have real honest hope now that I've given every worry over to Him. I can focus on all of the good that can happen..and I believe it really will.

Dear God,

Thank you for hearing our prayers for our dear Kesha. The news today was hopeful, and I pray that tomorrow all of her relentless pain will be gone. Please continue to comfort her and be with her tonight and through the surgery tomorrow. Remind her that you're there and to keep on trusting in you...she really does. I pray that he surgery goes well, as I know there are risks with any surgery. Guide the doctors hands to do the job right, and keep a protective hand upon Kesha. I pray that the surgery will be a success and she will recover just fine, effortlessly, and with little or even NO pain. I also pray that the biopsy results come back clean and positive. Give Ronnie strength as he deals with her being sick. Thank you God for never going back on your promises, and I know you're always with us and with her. I also thank you for your Word, God, as it has offered great comfort during this time of great fear for me. You always know exactly what you're doing and I know you put this passage of your Word on the radio right when I needed to hear it. Thank you for your reminders and continue to guide me with your strong hand. I put my trust in you God...help me to do that everyday, as I know I'll slip back into constant worry for my dear cousin. I just love her so much. And God...I know you're hearing this written prayer, and the one from yesterday, and all others I have written to you. You gave me this gift of words and the gift of expressing myself best through writing; I truly believe you're hearing every word as I write it...my own personal way of praying. I praise you for your comfort, your protection, and your love. I dedicate this entire prayer to Kesha and Ronnie; I know you hear it and will do the very best for her.

In your precious name I pray. Amen.
