Bonnie, There is a prayer that goes back to the days of Viet Nam. It seems appropriate now.
We give them back to you, O Lord who first gave them to us; yet as you did not lose them in the giving, so we do not lose them in the return. For what is yours is ours also, if we belong to you. Love is undying and life is unending, and the boundary of this mortal life is but a horizon, and a horizon is nothing save the limit of our sight. Lift us up strong Son of God that we may see further. Cleanse our eyes that we may see more clearly. And while you prepare a place for us, prepare us also for that happy place that we may be with you and with those we love forevermore.##imported-begin##Ed& Rosemarie Authier##imported-end##
