A Call for Prayer Date: Wednesday, 1st June 2005 @ 08:52:10 PM AEST Topic: Sad Poetry Contributed By: CodyJ A prayer in the hand, is worth a doctor in the hospital. So fold the fingers to make a temple, point it high so it does resemble a spear stabbing high into heaven. What is a prayer when there's medical bills? Just a thought as empty as air. I truly care when I say I do, when I say that I will pray for you. But when a hand is needed, your resources depleted, why come to me for help? Are you a beggar with no support, are you unfavored by God or a sordid sort, haven't I given what I'd promised to give? What need is there to give money to you, help with earthly matters to see you through, when prayer is the best that I could do. What could a doctor do that God couldn't? God bless and good luck.
