Father in Heaven I ask you to pick Mari up and hold her, confort her and let her just give it all to you and you will take it for her.  I thank you that you hold the deed to our lifes and you will take care of them.  Thank you for your cleansing power.  Thank you for washing away all of Mari's hurt, guilt, pain, shame, and suffering we know you do this because you took them to the cross with you.  When you were on the cross Mari was on your mind.  You looked forward in time just at Mari.  Thank you Jesus.  In your precious name we pray Amen

I would rather live my life as if there is a God, and die to find out there isn't, than live my life as if there isn't, and die to find out there is.
