Praying

Tonight I learned that my Grandfather is on his way to the hospital. He is being delivered by ambulance through this snowy night in Wyoming. Heart trouble… That is all I have heard. Wishing he will be just fine won’t make it happen, but thinking about him dying is just as fruitless. In the dark I prayed when I got off the phone with my mother (she is the one who informed me). On my hands and knees I was praying.

God, keep my Grandfather safe, please don’t take him yet because we still need him here. You already have my Grandmother and if you could just let him stay a while longer. Keep his heart working and let him know how much I love him. I pray these things in your name, Amen.

You've done the most important thing you can do for him. I will pray for your grandfather's health and for your comfort.
