A song for the weary soul...
If you have come here after visiting James' caringbridge site then you know about this song. Just in case, here is a recap:
Becky Smith, mother to Sarah, a Neuroblastoma survivor (5 years post-transplant), has had some questionable areas show up on her mammograms and subsequesnt MRI's. She is an extremely talented woman, in both her singing abilities and her faith. She and her husband traveled for many years, singing Christian music, until Sarah was diagnosed in 2002. Her husband now pastors a church and she sang this song last Sunday, before the congregation, and her own soul was wounded and weary. Many gathered around her to pray, just as many prayed over James during his journey here.
Prayer is a powerful tool; one that comes freely. No elegant/eloquent speaking abilities are needed. We pray to our Father as we would speak to a Friend...
I wanted to share with you all the beautiful song that she sang. It has some amazing words, and rings so true...
