239 - Gratitude

We received some amazing news this week: scans show that Dora’s condition is vastly improved, that some of the tumor is receding or gone. E.G. and Mario are so relieved and happy - the telephone wires heated up between L.A. and Chicago and Naples - all of us sharing our joy. The confluence of prayer and medicine has brought us this gift. With my thanks, I ask for your continued prayers

Gratitude

Divine Healer, You have brought new hope.
Confounding explanation, You have restored.
We set aside astonishment,
We offer thanks and praise.

We thank You for prayer, hearts joined,
We praise You for science, innovation;
The created whole brings healing,
Your power surpasses understanding.

The dread of days has lifted,
Harsh verdict set aside, for now, for now;
We gather in this time of respite,
Time aside for sweetness and sharing.
