Making Wishes

The other night as I laid in my bed, I got a really bad feeling in my stomach, you know, that really bad I-think-someone-died feeling? or something-really-bad-just-happened feeling? Well, then I started thinking about my mother's friend Paul who is also one of mine. Not long ago, Paul had I believe a nerve in his brain burst and spread some poison around in his brain and may have affected his sight, memory, his ability to walk, and some other things im unsure of at the moment. I pray for Paul at church every Wednesday I go but this feeling was driving me nuts. So, I crawled out of my warm snuggly bed and got on my knees on the floor. I closed my eyes and started to pray. I sighed and wiped the tears from my cheeks and looked out my window. I saw ome stars, but one caught my eye. It was small and not to bright and not too dull, it was perfect. I stared at the star for a moment before making a wish for Paul and for him to get better so he can go take care of his beautiful wife and two beautiful girls. Hopefully that perfect little star heard my wish and will do its best to make it come true. So please, when you go to pray tonight before you go to bed, pray for your loved ones who need and love you, and for Paul also, even if you do not know him. Every little bit of hope counts.
