Tomorrow always comes

I find false comfort in the numbness.
It protects me like armor.
But the foe strikes from within,
Threatening to crack the fragile facade.
Pain


Last night my friend's 11 year old daughter pulled her 2 year old brother out of the family pool. He is in critical condition. Please pray for him and the 11 year old girl who cried in my arms last night.

    Hey Corey,
    Unfortunately, last night, the little boy passed away. I will do a post tomorrow about it. Thank you for your prayers and concern, everybody. I know that my friend found great comfort in the knowledge that so many people were praying for her family and son.
