In honner of the late Ruth Graham

Dear God, I prayed, all unafraid,

(as we’re inclined to do),

I do not need a handsome man,

But let him be like You.

I do not need one big and tall,

Nor need he be some genius,

Or wealthy, Lord, at all;

But let his head be high, dear God,

And let his eye be clear.

His shoulders straight,

Whate’re his eathly sphere;

And let his face have character,

A ruggedness of soul,

And let his whole life show,

Dear God,

A singleness of goal;

That when he comes,

(as he will come),

With quiet eyes aglow,

I’ll understand that he’s the man,

I prayed for long ago.

–written by Ruth Graham in 1939 (at age 13)

Goodbye riverside

Please pray for my dad, today he tore his meniscus in his knee. He goes in Tuesday for a MRI to find out how bad it is and if he will need surgery.

The thing is, my mom and sister are going to be in Mexico for the month of July for a language class.

Because of this and a few other reasons I am moving back to Clearlake the last week of June.

I would have gone sooner… but I have Rachel and Nik's wedding to go to and there is no way I am going to miss that, and besides my mom and sister are with him now.

Pray for me also this is a big change for me.
