As I read Uncle John's e-mail today and thought about the situation at hand, I kept thinking about Christina's heart and the pain she is carrying. My prayer for Christina is that God would change her heart and fill her with His love, peace, comfort, mercy and grace and she would come home and be restored. A song came to mind as I prayed -- Precious Lord, Take My Hand (this is on an album by a group called Selah). It was originally composed by Thomas A. Dorsey after he lost his wife and child. He wrote this song while in the healing process.Here are the lyrics:
Precious Lord, take my hand.
Lead me on, help me stand.
I am tired.
I am weak.
I am worn.
Through the storm, through the night
Lead me on to the light.
Take my hand, precious Lord
Lead me Home.
When my way grows drear'
Precious Lord, linger near.
When my life is almost gone
Hear my cry, hear my call
Hold my hand, lest I fall.
Take my hand, precious Lord
Lead me Home.
Take my hand, precious Lord
Lead me Home.
You are in my prayers - Christina, John and Lynn
