A Prayer For Mattie Sunshine
In Remembrance of Mattie Sunshine McDonald-Zanders
My heart plummeted with the news of your illness.
My soul is crying, watching my dad quietly grieve.
I'm praying for Aunt Sunny,
For God to bear your pain on his sleeve.
I'm aching with a feeling of hopelessness.
Waiting for your suffering to be lifted from you.
You'll be rewarded soon in his HIS glory,
Your life is a testimony.
Therefore I know that God's love is true.
Father, I lift my words in prayer, that You shore up my family.
Strengthen my Father, Aunts and Uncles to be the pillars my cousins will need.
They are the roots to our family,
We, their children, are the seeds.
Send your angels of mercy, Lord, we so do need you now.
Place your kiss of acceptance upon my Aunt Sunny's brow.
We love you Lord and humbly beseech your mercy.
Take away her pain.
We are your loving servants and for all this we ask,
In your Son's name.
Amen
