A Wish From the Heart
One day, I just couldn’t take it anymore. Life was becoming too hard to bear. I felt I couldn’t take it anymore, so I prayed a prayer I’ve never said before. It went like this…
“God, things are just too hard for me right now. I know you are there and you know I am here. Please give me a sign. Give me a sign to let me know that you love me and you will take care of me.”
Then the day went on. I forgot I prayed this prayer.
I ended up having an awesome day. I haven’t had a day like that before. My husband took me out on a date, bought us some bikes, and ended the day with ice cream.
We want back home and he took a nap. A knock on the door.
It was my neighbor with a handful of daffodils in her hand. She said she’s been meaning to say hi, but haven’t had the chance out of being busy as well as honestly sharing being afraid to reach out. But today, she said that she just had to knock on my door. She had been cooking and was in the middle of things, but she said she just felt she had to drop everything and knock on my door.
She gave me the daffodils. I shared how I was having a hard time.
Then she prayed for me.
A strong wind came out of nowhere as she put her hand on my shoulder to pray for me.
I was amazed.
She gave me a very long healing hug and at that moment, I remembered my prayer earlier that day.
A prayer answered. =)
My eyes became open to everything around me, and I wrote the song below because I was completely inspired by the situation.
A Love Beyond Compare
Sometimes we need a little help from
Those that are round us to lift us up
From the ground, to the sky, then to the sun above
I know that our lives may seem like it’s so full
I know that it seems we have so little time
To give thanks, to laugh, to take a break sometimes
Look at the trees they just stand right there
Sway with the wind without a little care
So tall, so strong, so faithful to the world
Look all around you there’s a glimpse of
Something beyond the things you think of
From a smile, a hug, a love beyond compare
