Tears... ( or, Learning How to Pray)

Today I received an update from my friend, Tamara.

I think I will not try to explain the long story but just tell you that the last two years of life for her and her extended family have been unbelievably difficult.

Reading Tamara's words made my eyes fill up with tears. I am out of words when it comes to prayers for their situation.

But the tears were cool on my cheek and I just let them sit there.

Today, fresh quiet tears are my prayers.
