Dear God,

Thank you for him, for the past thirty years, and for the security of his love and devotion. God, we have had our share of “mountain tops“, as well as, “valleys“, but you have never left us and have always made us better because of them. We look to you and trust you to carry us through the journey we are currently on with our precious daughter. Thank you for allowing us to feel your pain, the pain you feel when one of your children has left the security of your arms. Bring her back home to us and to the security of your arms.

God we have watched you close and open many doors. Carry us through the next years of our lives together as we seek your guidance and your will. We will be careful to try not to blow through the opened doors, not taking the time to see you standing there holding them open for us, or plow through the closed ones wanting our way and not yours. You have blessed our lives in ways that we never deserved. I love you, L
