Dear God,

I have not been well.  I have not written you.  I have missed you.

Do you remember years ago when I had a mystery illness?  My body began shutting down like a dying process, only I would not die.  Finally through much prayer and a specialist in Boston did we find a solution to the problem.

For months all blood tests would appear perfectly normal; yet, I was very weak having difficulties breathing, digesting and speaking.  At first I was afraid but you came to me, sat with me and promised your constant presence.  I trusted you 100% because no doctor could figure out what was wrong.

This week some of the same symptoms returned, not nearly as bad, but still.  I have had to turn to you again because the same diagnostic tests reveal all is well.  It is time to trust deeply again.

You are God

and the

Great Physician.

You know all

about us

for you 

created us,

every part

of us.

Hold me close

while I

deepen my faith,

Holy One.

Love, Andrea
