A Prayer for You, Martha

No matter how cold or dark the way
that seems to stretch out in days ahead
You know, as you walk from day to day
God still rules over the things you dread.

The Lord, your Saviour, still holds your hand,
as you, in faith and trust, walk on.
May you move along the path He’s planned
in confidence that your crown He’s won.

A physician’s knowledge, or a surgeon’s skill
may yet bring full healing by the Creator’s will;
But may God’s peace be with you these coming days
as you lean on your trust in His holy ways.

Elspeth and Sandy
