O God, I am frightened. This is happening to me, And yet I hardly believe it. Fear grips my heart, And I am no longer in control. Walk with me I pray: Beside me to comfort me, Before me to guide me, Behind me to guard me. May I be open to the care of those who love me, May I trust those who seek to heal me, And may I know your peace that passes all understanding. Amen Helen Alexander
