It is the time of year where we count our blessings. Tonight I am thankful for my children's health. I know that there are many parents who are spending tonight in a hospital room. I can't imagine the pain and stress they are under. I don't want to have survivors guilt when I look at my kids, but I am so thankful that they are healthy. I thank God for the numerous times He has protected them from harm, times that could have been tragic but ended up just being little boo boos. Like the time my daughter feel down the stairs head first. Or just last week when my 7 month old put an entire leaf in his mouth while we were driving home from Mamaw's house.
But Lord, I pray for all those mom's who tonight feel the pain of their child's sickness. I pray that you would comfort them. I pray that you would provide for the financial needs to pay the medical bills and to make up for hours lost at work. I pray that you would touch their children and heal their broken bodies. I pray that the children would be glimpses of Jesus to the medical staff. I pray that Your presence would be felt and that Your love would be evident. And thank you again for my children's health and help me to never take it for granted. Amen.
