A Prayer for Travis

God, like a watchful Shepherd, You care for each of us. You know us individually by every strand of hair on our head, to the bottom of our feet. You know us personally and you are ever knowledgable of each of our present situations.

You alone, make the earth yield healing herbs and medicines and give us the knowledge to learn their power. Your creative love continues through the healing hands of the medical community and the healing counsel of ministers, priests and friends.We stand in continued awe of your healing powers and fully acknowledge that you continually carry this young man in your loving arms.

We may not all share the same religion, but we all serve ONE GOD and we share the LOVE we have for You, Dear God. We also come to form a bond with this family and join in their plea for a full recovery of this young man. We continually unite in prayer for this wonderful and amazing young man.

Travis has so many loved ones seeking, praying and awaiting his beautiful eyes to open. His warm smile to greet them and his loving arms to embrace them. You sent us a "ray of hope" right outside Travis' window and we fully acknowledge that you are indeed in the midst.


We ask that you contiually stand at his bedside and watch over him in his coma, as his brain "sleeps" in an attempt to recover. We ask that you continue to watch over his loved ones, Scott, Lynna, Hunter and his extended family. Their consciousness has been permanently altered as they continually try to grasp the scope of Travis' condition.


We ask that when Your gentle hand nudges Travis to awaken, and you gently whisper in his ear, "awaken my son", that he continually gains strength and perception to address the process of rebuilding and recovery.


We ask for continued partnership of the medical community, the praying community and the family in helping, uplifting and supporting this young man, that is affectionately known as SUPERMAN.

We ask for your Divine intervention.

Amen

Thank you to my dear, new friend for this prayer.

That was beautiful!!! Brought me to tears. To see this handsome guy go so far in a short period of time is SUCH a God thing. I know there is so much more of this miracle for us to see. We aren't going any where. We are staying right here by his side as he wakes up and as he heals. All the long giving thanks to our heavenly Father!
Love you dearly friend~Rob
