Poems...

My mom emails me alot of poems. I admit, I have a TON of them yet to read. I put them into a folder to look at once life got back to normal, post paramedic school. She sent this one to me and I absolutely love it. I just wanted to share it here...

RIGHT WHERE YOU ARE

Lord, I don't feel well today
But I know You're standing near
to fight my every battle
and calm my every fear.

My body feels so broken
My health is not the best
Please Lord, won't you heal me,
and give me complete rest?

I know that I should trust you
in all, through out the day
but as the day wears on me
Sometimes my faith does sway.

At times I sit and wonder
If you have heard my prayer
Forgive me Lord for doubting
at times when in despair.

I tell myself You hear me
every spoken prayer I send
so I'll trust in you to help me
to fix, and heal, and mend.

But remember I am human
for you created me this way
and sometimes I will falter
and at times I may stray.

When that occurs please catch me
don't let me fall to far
because Lord my desire
is to be right where you are.
