my daddy

He is not feeling well. Please add him to your prayer list. For those of you that know our family, he is dealing with the same illness he's dealt with before. I find myself wishing God would just heal him allready. I tend to get more impatient when my parents are sick. Especially when it's recurring. I get pushy in my prayers. Mainly it is because there is nothing I can do. I bring magazines, fetch drinks, and talk about everything under the sun to try and bring smiles, but really there's nothing I can do to make it better and I hate that. I want the problem fixed, and fixed quickly so that my parents don't have to go through this anymore. But even in my impatience, God loves me. He sits through all my blathering, and then wraps me in His love. Let's face it, He's probably come to expect a certain amount of "emotion" from me when my daddy gets sick. Comes with the territory. So what am I rambling on about? I'm not even sure I know. I just felt like I needed someone to talk to, and I needed people to pray. So I came here. And hopefully those of you out there that read this will send up a special prayer for my daddy...
