it can be
a little prayer . . .
it works
i called a friend
soon going into surgery
she was frightened
i was not sure what she would say
i asked if it would be okay if i prayed for her
she was silent
for several minutes
then she said
don’t you think it’s too late to pray?
i guaranteed that it is never too late
and i would send a prayer each time
i thought about her
she said nothing
for several minutes
than fighting tears
she said “no one ever offered
to pray for me before”
