Lord hear me this day. I have for more years than I care to remember fought to protect and help total strangers in their darkest most trying moments.
I have been there to give breath when they had trouble breathing. I have made hearts beat after they have stopped.
I have placed band-aids and bandages over all kinds of boo-boos and wounds.
I have witnessed the gift of life being born into this world, and I have watched the light of a soul fade to black more times than I care to remember.
I never turned away when someone needed help. Instead I ran in. At times placing myself in harms way just to keep the reaper away.
I have held strangers and comforted them as they cried in pain and sorrow. This is what I thought was my part in this chaotic play that you have written.
I awoke each day and accepted the fact that no matter what, I was going to due everything in my power to make a difference.
I went to bed every night hearing all those screams of pain and sorrow. Seeing the tears of all those families that just lost a loved one. Never once asking why this one lived or why this one died.
Now after all these years of helping others, I am asking for your help. I have no more strength to carry this weight. My heart is heavy and my soul is empty.
I am asking you to lend a hand and be there for me in my time of need. Lighten my heart and fill my soul. Give me somebody to be there in my time of desperation and need. Give me the strength to carry on alittle longer. To be there once again in somebody's time of need.
