A call for Prayers

Marie was very touched by two individuals today, one eighty and the other in her seventies. Both had travelled uneven and rough paths in life, but you know what folks? They love life here on earth despite their sickness and their pain. Infact they weep not because they are very ill but because they are afraid, their time may be near. They are fighting to live a little longer and are being very vocal about it. This dear gentleman was weeping as he shared his desire to find a cure for his ailment and continue on with his life. He wants to see his young grand children grow up. He wants to be part of their journey. Incredible!The other suffered a stroke and is totally dependent on others for her needs. Since her stroke, she felt alienated and she suffered lonliness but yet surprisingly, she has a strong will to live.
.
Makes one ashamed because , when life whips us a little, we scuttled into our little corner and start questioning our very existence ; the why, why, why.. etc...etc...We wish life could just end... , we want out , so on and so forth. Let's be honest about it. Some people go through such emotions at some point of their journey's path. But these two individuals wants to live despite their pains and their sufferings. Friends will you join me in saying a little prayer for them???For the eighty year old, Marie prays he lives to a healthy and strong 100. To the other, may God brings love and joy back into her life. Let her become independent and walk again. God Bless , and many blessings for your kind prayers!
