Heartbreaking one,
More so for me because I could identify with
The woman's pain.
Her young husband was in a coma, the
Result of a cerebral hemorrhage.
He had not seen their month old baby, and
Unless God performs a miracle, he
Never will,
Earth-side.
The years dissipated as I thought back to my
Husband, Min, when he languished for days in
A similar state.
As I approached God for the stricken
Couple, I relived my own sorrow and I
Prayed with compassion.
"Lord, help her.
As this wife and mom is pushed back and
About to fall,
Be her strength.
Be her song.
Be her salvation. *
Be as near to her as You
Were to me."
* "I was pushed back and about to fall, but the
Lord helped me. The Lord is my strength and my
song; He has become my salvation." (Psalm 18: 13,14)
