Prayer For Aunt Marie Poem by Justin Reamer

Dear Lord,

Please keep Aunt Marie in Your protection,
And please help her to be okay.
She will be going through surgery today,
And she needs all of Your blessings, Lord.
I just ask that You could keep her safe.
She is very ill,
And she has pneumonia, asthma, and something else,
And just keep her safe, if at all possible.

Lord, I realise that everyone will
Eventually die one day,
And if it is Aunt Marie's time,
Let it be according to Your Will.
Yet Lord, if it is her time,
Please help her to pass on
Without any pain,
And help her into Your loving arms,
Where she can live peacefully and happily forever.

And, yet, if it is her time,
Please console those who
Will mourn her loss,
And help them to remember
Everything good about her,
For she would not want people
To be depressed in any way,
But to celebrate her life,
And to remember her in that way.

Yet, Lord, as she is going through surgery,
Help her to stay safe,
And help her to feel little pain,
And if she survives, bless her soul,
And if it is her time,
Let her pass on into Your arms, Lord,
And help her live in joy and happiness,
As she has lived here on Earth.

Lord, Aunt Marie is devoted to You,
So just help her in any way You can,
And if her time comes to pass,
Just help her pass on and
Come into Your arms,
And bless those who
Shall mourn her death,
And help them to remember all
Of the good parts of her life.

Thank You for everything, Lord.

In Your Name, I pray. Amen.
