Thoughts And Prayers, By: Rachel Huber

Thoughts And Prayers, By: Rachel Huber

Consider the lilies of the field.
Why are they doing so well?
They neither toil nor spin nor do they sin
Maybe that’s why they get a pass and i am stuck in an earthly hell
How can i sin when i cannot leave my home?
I find creative ways each day to get the job done
Mainly i think i harbor levels of hate not seen since one of the last big atrocities
Forgiveness has become for me the most difficult of Christianity’s philosophies
Love your enemies and pray for those who Persecute you
So at the end of the day i have a rolodex of at least a dozen medical professionals i mentally flip through
Those who could not help me Or said i “wanted too much”
My enemy/prayer list
Is just a list of Consider the lilies of the field.

Those who could not help me. Or said i”wanted to much” when i said i wanted to be able to pick up my baby
My enemy/prayer list
Is just a list of people in scrubs in scrubs
