Lord, I know it's up to You if I stay or go,
and I can't wait to share Heaven's bliss.
But how can I leave before I really know,
if these joys, someone I love, might miss?

Lord, You Know how homesick I sometimes get.
My home is just a shadow of memories I hold.
You also know that I can't leave just yet.
I must make sure they are all in Your fold.

My child is living apart from Your plan.
Her child, to be awash alone on life's seas.
What can I do to make her understand,
that it's only You, her life needs to please?

So Lord, You see why I can't go yet.
Some of my loved ones are failing the test.
They must be safe within Heaven's net,
before I can go with You and rest.

Oh, Sammie, I pray that He draws those who are away from Him back to His fold. I pray for your strength, and His sustaining power for you. I pray that you will be in good health. God bless!

Sammie -- A heartfelt prayer for God to grant your loved ones 1. Revelation (that they may see their destiny without Him) 2. Conviction (through the Holy Spirit) 3. Repentence (that God will draw them into His Heart) I understand the need to be here for them. I pray God will grant your request with the wisdom, strength, and health you need to help those you love. Pat Guy
