Secret Prayer

Secret Prayer©

by Michael Casey

Sometimes a prayer is a secret that we cannot reveal to the intended recipient, they would not approve of being prayed for, they would not want to receive a pray, they would lose face, they don't want to receive a grace, yet prayer is a grace, from me to you, or rather I ask and you receive, so why do the deceiving?

We are just doing the healing, yes we'll carry on praying and begging for healing, our eyes facing the ceiling.

Sure we'll pray for anybody, and we'll whisper their name, "Hail Mary full of Grace, Our Father who art in Heaven" yes we'll pray this, we'll dust off those rosary beads and beg and pray for all we're worth, please please keep this lady on this earth, don't let her die or her other child will be left all alone, no Lord please I'm begging you now, yes MY prayers are worthless, but there must be somebody who reads this whose prayers are golden, whose love is worthy.

So please please Lord pretend I'm somebody else praying and a begging you to save this life, save this somebody else's wife, save this somebody else's mummy. Please Lord this is all I can pray, let this lady live many many many a day AMEN

I've had a long pain day today/last night 24 hours worth, but its fading now. I was looking at rightmove.co.uk in the vain hope I'd spot something big  enough for us all and  that all 4 of us and the cat and maybe a future dog would like. Then I spotted one, literally around the corner from the one we should have bought six months ago. 

Only Its double our budget, then I thought if only somebody  prayed for us to win the lottery, or you the readers finally start to buy all my ebooks...  The I remembered this piece I wrote for a really nice lady I met on FB before I left all social media.

I attract too many strange people, I know, have I looked in the mirror. So I found this from 6 years  ago, and as I read it I shed a tear as I remember  that nice lady.

And I remembered just how true the piece was, so say your own secret prayer tonight for all those who really need it.
