Awesome Prayer....

The last two nights at the shelter... the guys were asked who would like to say the blessing for the meal. Both nights received an immediate response. The first night, the guy who prayed said the "God is Great" prayer that most of us learned as a child.... that was cool to hear him and see him be so willing to pray. Then last night, the guy who prayed... had an original prayer and it almost brought me to tears... hearing how grateful he was for the blessings that he had experienced that day... the biggest one was life! And the greatest request was for strength to do what was necessary to survive. So humbling and yet profoundly beautiful.
